- Dealers will remove the secondary heat exchanger loop, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 24, 2026. Owners may contact Storyteller customer service at 1-888-999-7442.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles

How this campaign compares
At 357 vehicles this is a small campaign: 53% 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, 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
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 Storyteller Overland with NHTSA on April 29, 2026 as campaign 26V274000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
