What the notice says to do (the remedy, in its words)
“Xos, Inc. (Xos) is recalling certain 2021-2022 SV05 vehicles. The electronic parking brake may malfunction or fail to engage without warning to the driver.” “Electronic parking brake failure may result in a vehicle rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash.”XOS PARKING BRAKE recall, NHTSA recall record, 2023-11-17. The caption and the remedy steps are the record's own words.
A generic drawing of the kind of part, not the part itself. The failure mark follows the record's verb; the phrases on the right are the record's own words. The test dummy stands for the risk the notice names (“risk of a crash”); it is not a record of something that happened.
If the drawing and the record's words differ, the words govern. A drawing is chosen by rules and an AI reading of the record and can miss what it means; report one with the form below.
