Recall 23V249000 · manufacturer campaign 23VDC0301

Parking Brake — Nikola · reported 6 Apr 2023 · 364 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Nikola Corporation (Nikola) is recalling certain 2022-2024 TRE BEV trucks. The electronic parking brake valve module (PVM) may fail to move into the park position when the parking brake is activated.

The risk

A parking brake that is not engaged as expected when the driver releases the brakes may allow the vehicle to rollaway, increasing the risk of crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the PVM, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 1, 2023. Owners may contact Nikola customer service at 1-630-808-4531. Nikola's number for this recall is 23VDC0301.

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.
