Xos, Inc. is recalling 260 of its 2021 RM01, 2021 SA01, and 2021-2022 SV05 vehicles because the brake lines may be the wrong length and were routed incorrectly during manufacturing. This defect can lead to a brake fluid leak, which reduces the vehicle's ability to stop quickly. Owners of these specific electric commercial vehicles should contact Xos to arrange for a free repair to ensure their braking system remains functional.
A brake fluid leak will cause a loss of hydraulic pressure in the braking system, leading to significantly longer stopping distances. This increased distance increases the likelihood of a crash, especially in emergency stopping situations.
