ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE
- The defect
- LIVEWIRE EV, LLC (LiveWire) is recalling certain 2024 S2DM (S2 Del Mar) motorcycles. The Vehicle Supervisory Control (VSC) software may initiate and cause a powertrain shutdown as a result of internal software voltage thresholds being exceeded.
- What it can cause
- An unexpected powertrain shutdown can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- LiveWire will release an over-the-air (OTA) software update. Owner notification letters were mailed March 5, 2024. Owners may contact LiveWire customer service at 1-855-387-4337. LiveWire's number for this recall is 1001.
- 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. This one is fixed by a software update rather than a workshop visit.
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 523 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 51% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 24V601000 (electrical system), 24V216000 (suspension).
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 LIVEWIRE EV, LLC with NHTSA on February 26, 2024 as campaign 24V149000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
