ElectraMeccanica is recalling 129 2021 Solo G3 vehicles because a rear turn signal failure may not alert the driver, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where the defect increases the risk of a crash, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Electra Meccanica Vehicles Corp is recalling certain 2021 Solo G3 vehicles. The recall involves 129 vehicles in total.

The defect involves the body control module software. In the event of a rear turn signal wire harness short-circuit, the flashing frequency of the unaffected turn signal lights does not change. This failure prevents the vehicle from alerting the driver that a turn signal has failed, causing the vehicle to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108. Driving without a functional rear turn signal can increase the risk of a crash.

ElectraMeccanica will update the body control module software free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 22, 2022. Owners may contact ElectraMeccanica customer service at 1-888-457-SOLO or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
