Orange Ev pintle hook partially blocks the center of the backup lights.
The short version
Orange EV reported a problem with the exterior lighting back up lights. Here is what owners need to know.
The pintle hook partially blocks the center of the backup lights. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Obstructed backup lights can reduce the vehicle's visibility to pedestrians or other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Orange EV service will replace the rear passenger taillight, free of charge.
