EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HAZARD FLASHING WARNING LIGHTS

The defect
Orange EV (OEV) is recalling certain 2017-2024 T-Series, 2023-2025 e-TRIEVER, and HUSK-e terminal trucks. The hazard warning lights may turn off when the ignition is in the 'Off' position. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
What it can cause
Hazard lights that do not remain on cannot warn other drivers of a disabled vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
OEV field service will install a new hazard light wire harness and update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed by November 24, 2025. Owners may contact OEV customer service at 1-866-688-5223. OEV's number for this recall is 2025-SRC-07.

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 1,378 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 62% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2017 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were 8 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Orange EV vehicles have been recalled over the exterior lighting 3 times before this, most recently in May 2025 as 25V328000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 15 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V453000 (structure), 26V153000 (seats), 26V102000 (latches/locks/linkages), 25V571000 (power train).

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.
