2019 FCCC XCR Complaints and Recall Information
The 2019 FCCC XCR has 0 complaints and 100 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to vehicle safety components such as brakes, electrical systems, and exterior lighting as identified through recall data.
There are 100 recalls for the 2019 FCCC XCR affecting various systems including brakes, electrical components, exterior lighting, tires, and steering mechanisms. These recalls mainly address safety defects that could increase the risk of crashes or loss of vehicle control.
- Brake caliper mounting bolts. Multiple recalls report insufficiently tightened brake caliper mounting bolts, which can reduce brake effectiveness and increase crash risk. Repairs involve inspection and tightening of bolts free of charge.
- Power Distribution Module (PDM) damage. Several recalls involve damage to the rear mounted PDM, causing rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals to not function, increasing crash risk. Dealers replace or repair the module or install secondary fused harnesses at no cost.
- Tire valve stem extensions. Valve stem extensions for inner wheels may contact outer wheel rims and become damaged, risking loss of tire pressure and crash. Dealers remove or replace stabilizers and valve stems free of charge.
- Steering and tie rod arm bolts. Loose bolts in steering and tie rod arms have been reported, risking separation leading to loss of control. Inspections and bolt tightening or replacement are part of the repair process.
- Instrument panel brightness. The instrument panel brightness cannot be adjusted, potentially causing glare and reducing driver visibility, which increases crash risk. Software updates and processor replacements are used as fixes.
Recalls
- Electrical System: Instrument Cluster/Panel. (NHTSA recall 20V485000) Affects 1715 vehicles; the instrument panel brightness cannot be adjusted, causing potential glare. Risk of reduced road visibility leads to increased crash risk. The repair updates software and processor free of charge.
- Service Brakes, Air Disc. (NHTSA recalls 19V367000, 20V127000, 18V703000, 18V353000) Affecting thousands of vehicles including the 2019 model, brake caliper mounting bolts may be insufficiently tightened, reducing brake performance and raising crash risk. The remedy involves inspection and tightening of bolts at no charge.
- Exterior Lighting: Turn Signals and Brake Lights. (NHTSA recalls 20V404000, 21V00H000, 18V582000) Affecting up to 24,869 vehicles, damage in the rear PDM can cause rear marker lights, brake lights, or turn signals to fail, reducing visibility and increasing crash risk. Repairs include replacing the PDM or installing a secondary fused harness free of charge. Some remedies are expansions of earlier recalls.
- Tires: Valve. (NHTSA recalls 21V921000, 20V529000) Affecting over 16,000 vehicles, the valve stem extensions may be damaged due to contact with the wheel rim, causing loss of tire pressure and crash risk. Dealers remove or replace valve stem extensions and stabilizers for free.
- Steering Linkages and Control Arms. (NHTSA recall 18V913000) For 501 vehicles, loose steering and tie rod arm bolts risk separation and loss of control. Inspections with tightening and replacement of fasteners are conducted free of charge.
Owners with repeated repairs or unresolved recall issues involving safety defects or critical systems may want to explore their rights under state lemon laws.
