2019–2022 Motiv F-53 Bev Chassis, Motiv F-59 Bev Chassis: Electrical System recall
NHTSA campaign 25V261000 · 139 units potentially affected · filed Apr 18, 2025
What's wrong
Motiv Power Systems, Inc. (Motiv) is recalling certain 2019-2022 F-53 and F-59 vehicles equipped with a Motiv Gen 5 EPIC powertrain. A support bracket may fatigue and break, allowing the main power disconnect to contact other structures and short.
Why it matters
An electrical short can shut down the high voltage system, resulting in a loss of drive power and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Motiv field support technicians will replace the bracket, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 9, 2025. Owners may contact Motiv customer service at 1-650-458-4804.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
