⚠️ What's wrong
Pilotcar EV INC. (Pilotcar) is recalling certain 2021-2023 PC-2, PC-4, and PC-6 low speed electric vehicles. The red rear reflectors may detach from the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 500, "Low Speed Vehicles."
💥 The risk
A missing reflector reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Pilotcar will install mounting screws and replace missing reflectors as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 19, 2023. Owners may contact Pilotcar customer service at 1-239-243-8023. Pilotcar's number for this recall is PC-2023-01.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
