Narrative

A recall notice (NHTSA recall # 23V652) was issued on 14Nov23 where the HECU may experience an electrical short circuit, which in turn can result in a car fire. To this date, the remedy part is not available. If I'm not mistaken, car fires can be a serious issue, therefore, I am reporting the delay in availability of this part. I also want to inform you that the telephone number referenced on this website and the recall notice to file a complaint (888-327-4236) is invalid and that this website and number should be updated with the correct phone number.
