2019 ORANGE EV T-SERIES ELECTRIC TRUCK Complaints and Recall Information
The 2019 ORANGE EV T-SERIES ELECTRIC TRUCK has 0 complaints and 10 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to lighting obstructions caused by trailer hitches and frame extenders. Problems also involve incorrect emergency response manuals and steering component defects in earlier model years.
A total of 10 recalls have been issued affecting various systems such as exterior lighting, trailer hitches, vehicle structure, steering components, and operator manuals. These recalls address defects that compromise vehicle visibility, electrical safety, and steering reliability.
Recalls- Backup light obstruction. NHTSA recall 25V328000 affects 301 vehicles due to the pintle hook partially blocking the center of the backup lights. This reduces visibility of backup lights and increases crash risk. The remedy involves replacing the rear passenger taillight free of charge. Owners were notified in August 2025.
- Trailer hitch obstruction. Recall 25V328000 covers the same 301 vehicles with pintle hooks obstructing rear backup lights, failing FMVSS 108. Repair consists of rear taillight replacement. Owner notification occurred in August 2025.
- Frame extenders blocking lights. Recall 24V964000 impacts 148 trucks built with frame extenders that obstruct rear turn signals, reverse, brake, and taillights. This fails FMVSS 108 and raises crash risk. Owners are advised to limit on-road use without trailers until repairs are available. Notifications began February 2025.
- Exterior lighting obstruction. Recall 24V964000 duplicates the frame extender lighting blockage issue affecting the same 148 vehicles. Interim notifications were sent and a fix is pending.
- Incorrect emergency manuals. Recall 24V800000 covers 1,334 vehicles where owner and service manuals incorrectly state the emergency stop button disables the high voltage system. This misinformation risks electrical injury. Corrected manuals and warning labels will be provided at no cost. Owners were notified in December 2024.
- Front side marker light issues. Recall 24V965000 affects 1,276 trucks with missing front side marker lights and improperly located passenger front side reflectors. This condition reduces vehicle visibility and increases crash risk. Owners should limit on-road use without trailers until the fix is ready. Notifications were mailed August 2025.
- Steering pitman arm bolt defect. Recall 21V827000 involves 252 trucks from 2019-2021 with potential loose pitman arm bolts that may detach from the steering box. This can cause a loss of steering and crash hazard. Repairs consist of tightening or replacing the bolt free of charge. Owners were notified November 2021.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs, recall-related safety defects, or unresolved recall issues may have rights under their state’s lemon law. Consulting a qualified attorney for assistance with these matters is advisable.
