Orange EV Recalls T-Series, Husk-e, and e-TRIEVER Trucks for Lighting Defects

Orange EV is recalling 1,276 electric trucks because missing or misplaced lights and reflectors may reduce visibility to other drivers, 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 defect that increases the risk of a crash due to reduced visibility, but no injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Orange EV is recalling certain 2023-2024 HUSK-e, 2023-2025 e-TRIEVER, and 2017-2024 T-Series electric trucks. The recall involves 1,276 vehicles where the front side marker lights may be missing and the passenger front side reflectors may be in the incorrect location. These defects cause the vehicles to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The missing or incorrectly positioned lights and reflectors can reduce the trailers' visibility to other drivers, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, but the defect presents a safety hazard due to reduced visibility.

Owners are advised to limit on-road use while operating without a trailer until the remedy is available. Orange EV will install front side marker lights and relocate the front reflectors free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 15, 2025. Owners may contact Orange EV customer service at 1-866-688-5223 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
