The problem

Pilotcar EV INC (Pilotcar) is recalling certain 2021-2023 PC-2, PC-4, and PC-6 vehicles. The rearview camera and monitor were not installed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 111, "Rear Visibility" and 500, "Low Speed Vehicles."

The risk

The absence of a rearview camera system reduces the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will install a rearview camera and monitor, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 28, 2023. Owners may contact Pilotcar customer service at 1-239-243-8023. Pilotcar's number for this recall is PC-2023-02.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
