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 7 vehicles this is a small campaign: 94% 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 model years 2024 to 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 24V460000 (electrical system), 24V377000 (parking brake), 23V452000 (electrical system), 23V448000 (engine and engine cooling).
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 Lion Electric Company with NHTSA on October 20, 2023 as campaign 23V710000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
