What's wrong

The battery management system (BMS) software can cause the high-voltage battery to shut down, resulting in a loss of drive power.
Why it matters
A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.

Dealers will update the BMS software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 24, 2024. Owners may contact SEA-Electric customer service at 1-833-732-3532.
