ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
- The defect
- Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2020-2024 DC (Legend) vehicles. The wiring harness may route fusible links too closely to other components.
- What it can cause
- During a short circuit, the fusible link may ignite nearby material, increasing the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will repair or replace the harness to include proper circuit protection, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 24, 2025. Owners may contact Autocar customer service at 1-888-218-3611. Autocar's number for this recall is DC-2404.
- 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 597 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 52% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Autocar vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 14 times before this, most recently in June 2023 as 23V400000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 27 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V679000 (steering), 25V660000 (steering), 25V209000 (service brakes, air), 25V208000 (electrical system).
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 Autocar, LLC with NHTSA on May 6, 2024 as campaign 24V264000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
