What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2025-2026 ACX (Xpeditor) vehicles. The winter front cover may interfere with the forward collision warning (FCW) system.

The risk

Interference may cause the FCW system to fail, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Autocar will replace the cover, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 29, 2026. Owners may contact Autocar customer service at 1-888-218-3611. Autocar's number for this recall is ACX-2602.

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.
