Defect

On electric small trucks, an error in the VCU control software causes the system to incorrectly detect a communication error and shut down the high-voltage system as a safety measure. As a result, while the vehicle is in motion, the high-voltage battery charge level displayed in the instrument cluster may unexpectedly drop to 0%, and the vehicle becomes unable to continue driving.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, reprogram the VCU control software to the corrected specification.
