Mobility Ventures LLC "Mobility Ventures" is recalling certain 2015-2016 Mobility Ventures MV-1 vehicles. If a rear turn signal stops working properly, the vehicle will not adjust the turn signal flash rate frequency to warn the driver that a turn signal is not working correctly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
If the driver is unaware that his turn signals are not working properly, the driver may continue to use the vehicle with turn signals that may not communicate the driver's intentions, increasing the risk of a crash.
Mobility Ventures will notify owners and dealers will upload revised software into the vehicle's body control module, free of charge. Mobility Ventures issued owners an interim notification on July 30, 2018. The recall began May 6, 2019. Owners may contact Mobility Ventures customer service at 1-877-681-3678.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
