What happened

Autocar is recalling certain 2019-2021 Xpeditor and 2021-2022 Legend vehicles equipped with a MRS 7" display. The display may restart during vehicle operation, causing important warning lights—including seat belt, low air, check engine, ABS, park brake, turn signal, fuel level, electrical charge, coolant temperature, and oil pressure indicators—to become invisible until the restart completes. This creates a safety risk because drivers will not see critical warnings, potentially increasing the risk of crashes or injury.

Autocar will notify owners and provide a free display replacement at authorized dealers. Interim notices about the safety risk were mailed on April 19, 2021, and a second notice will be sent in February 2022 when the remedy becomes available. Owners should contact Autocar customer service at 1-888-218-3611 or 1-877-973-3486 and reference recall number ACX-2102-DC-2101.
