NHTSA campaign 22E016000 · 3 units potentially affected · filed Mar 3, 2022

What's wrong

Pony.ai is recalling certain Automated Driving Systems (ADS) with software version v2_20210712, and subsequent versions through v2_20210920_RC38, and v2_20211004. A software error may cause the ADS to shutdown unexpectedly while the vehicle is moving.

Why it matters

An unexpected ADS shutdown while in motion can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Pony.ai updated the ADS software code, free of charge. All affected vehicles have been repaired.

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.
