PARKING BRAKE:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Orange EV (OEV) is recalling certain 2022 e-Triever vehicles. The fastener for the parking brake slack adjustor may not have been properly tightened.
- What it can cause
- A loose fastener may prevent the parking brake from properly engaging, allowing the vehicle to rollaway and increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- OEV Service will tighten or replace the fastener, free of charge. All affected vehicles were remedied by December 19, 2022. Owners may contact OEV customer service at 1-866-688-5223.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 106 vehicles this is a small campaign: 69% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Orange EV with NHTSA on October 20, 2022 as campaign 22V790000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
