Electra Meccanica Vehicles Corp — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BODY CONTROL MODULE:SOFTWARE

Is my product affected?

2021 ELECTRAMECCANICA SOLO G3

  • Brand ELECTRAMECCANICA

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Electra Meccanica is recalling certain 2021 Solo vehicles because of a potential electrical defect in the body control module software. If the rear turn signal wire harness experiences a short circuit, the functioning turn signal lights will continue to flash normally, which means the driver may not realize that the rear turn signal has failed. A non-functional rear turn signal increases the risk of a crash because other drivers cannot see the vehicle's turning intent.

To remedy this issue, Electra Meccanica will update the body control module software at no charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 22, 2022. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Electra Meccanica customer service at 1-888-457-SOLO and reference recall number 22SC01 to schedule the software update.

Details from the source
