What's wrong

Xos, Inc. (Xos) is recalling certain 2021 RM01, SA01, and 2021-2022 SV05 vehicles. The bolts connecting the electronic parking brake rotor to the driveshaft may have been improperly tightened.

Why it matters

Loose bolts may allow the driveshaft to separate, causing a loss of drive power and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the bolts and related hardware, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 19, 2023. Owners may contact Xos customer service at 1-818-316-1890. Xos's number for this recall is REC 002-23.

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.
