What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Nikola Corporation (Nikola) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Tre BEV vehicles. A resistor may degrade, causing the instrument panel to fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 101, "Control and Displays."

The risk

An instrument panel that fails to display critical safety information, such as the speedometer or warning lights, increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers will replace the instrument panel, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2024. Owners may contact Nikola customer service at 1-888-268-1181. Nikola's number for this recall is 24VDC0903.

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 nhtsa.gov.

A 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.
