The defect
Motiv Power Systems, Inc. (Motiv) is recalling certain 2019-2022 F-53 and F-59 vehicles equipped with a Motiv Gen 5 EPIC powertrain. A support bracket may fatigue and break, allowing the main power disconnect to contact other structures and short.
The risk
An electrical short can shut down the high voltage system, resulting in a loss of drive power and increasing the risk of a crash.
