What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Dongguan Biaoming technology Co., Ltd. is recalling certain Tesla Charger (NACS) to Combined Charging System (CCS) adapters with part number Jeco041. These adapters were sold by JecoEV through Amazon. The recall is necessary because the charging cable adapter was manufactured without over-temperature circuit protection and may not securely latch to the charger.

The defects present two primary safety hazards. First, an unsecured charger can be disconnected without shutting off the charger power, which increases the risk of injury from an electrical shock. Second, the lack of circuit protection allows the adapter to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

Owners of these adapters should contact Dongguan Biaoming technology Co., Ltd. customer service at 1-364-510-9187 to receive a full refund, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on July 29, 2024. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for additional information.
