What's wrong

Pilotcar EV INC. (Pilotcar) is recalling certain 2021-2023 PC-2, PC-4, and PC-6 low speed electric vehicles. The red rear reflectors may detach from the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 500, "Low Speed Vehicles."

The risk

A missing reflector reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Pilotcar will install mounting screws and replace missing reflectors as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 19, 2023. Owners may contact Pilotcar customer service at 1-239-243-8023. Pilotcar's number for this recall is PC-2023-01.

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.
