Orange EV is recalling certain 2023-2024 HUSK-e XP terminal trucks. The rear Gross Axle Weight Rating "GAWR" on the federal placard is incorrect and the installed tires and rims may be inadequate for the truck's intended use. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 120, "Wheels and Rims - Other Than Passenger Cars."
An incorrect GAWR and an inadequate tire and rim combination can lead to unintentionally overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy is currently under development. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk are expected to be mailed April 25, 2025. A second notice will be sent once the remedy becomes available. Owners may contact Orange EV customer service at 1-866-688-5223.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-888-275-9171', or go to www.safercar.gov.
