Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

EQUIPMENT; PARKING BRAKE; SERVICE BRAKES

The friction material used on the Evora GT front and rear brake pads no longer meet the legislation requirements in certain USA States. This legislation affects vehicles with the current brake pads fitted built after the 1st January 2021. New brake pads that meet the latest legislation requirements are available for Evora GT vehicles. Replace front and rear brake pad sets as stated on Service Bulletin 2023/06

POWER TRAIN

Standard information required and procedures to be followed when reporting ECU & TCU faults. There is often insufficient, or inconsistent information received from dealers when reporting ECU & TCU related faults, this can lead to unacceptable delays in repairing vehicles.

EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:INFOTAINMENT; EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:INFOTAINMENT:BLUETOOTH/WIFI

When using Bluetooth, the data rate between the Lotus 20/20 diagnostic laptop and the VCI (Vehicle Communication Interface) module, is not fast enough to support functions that require large data bandwidth (live data logging, ECU / TCU Flash Programming etc.).

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

An ECU.crp program update is now available for all Federal Evora 2021 model year vehicles to ensure that they meet the current emissions diagnostic requirements.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
