Pilotcar EV INC is recalling 265 of its 2021-2023 PC-2, PC-4, and PC-6 low speed electric vehicles because they were manufactured without a pedestrian warning sound system. These electric vehicles are required by federal safety standards to emit a sound so that pedestrians and other road users can hear them approaching. To fix this, Pilotcar will install a digital sound generator, amplifier, and two speakers at no cost to owners.
Because these electric vehicles operate quietly, the lack of a pedestrian warning sound makes them difficult for people nearby to hear. This increases the risk of a collision or crash between the vehicle and a pedestrian.
