IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL

This notice applies to your vehicle: 7F7ATR31XXXXXXXXX

 

January XX, 2020

 

Safety Recall: Braided Shielding May Cause Short NHTSA Recall: 19V791

 

Dear <First name, Last name>:

 

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

 

Arcimoto has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2019 model year FUVs.

 

! IMPORTANT !

► Your vehicle is being recalled

► You should contact Arcimoto to schedule the repair at no charge

 

Why is your vehicle being recalled?

Due to assembly variation of a high-voltage harness, braided shielding may incorrectly ground to a non-ground conductor. This could introduce the possibility of a high-voltage system short, which would lead to an immediate loss of traction power without warning, making the vehicle more difficult to control and increasing the likelihood of a crash.

 

What will we do?

The incorrectly assembled high-voltage harnesses will be replaced with a correctly assembled component. The replacement will be performed at no cost and can take up to one hour to complete.

 

What should you do?

Contact Arcimoto to schedule a service appointment.

 

Do you have questions? Do not hesitate to contact Arcimoto at (541) 683-6293 should you have any questions or concerns.

If after contacting Arcimoto, you are still not satisfied we have done our best to remedy this condition without charge and within a reasonable time, you may submit a complaint to the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave., S.E., Washington, D.C., 20590; or call the toll-free Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); or go to  http://www.safercar.gov. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Campaign ID Number for this recall is 19V791.
