Recall 25V261000

Structure › Critical Fasteners — Motiv · reported 18 Apr 2025 · 139 vehicles potentially affected

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.

The risk

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.
