1 bulletin

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

Motiv TSB-Ring Terminal

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

Motiv Power Systems, Inc. has determined that on certain vehicles converted to a Motiv Gen 4 E-450, F-59 and Gen 5 F-59 and F-53 model powertrain, 12-volt power wires crimped to a ring terminal on the master disconnect switch under the hood could deteriorate over time and lose connection from the crimp barrel resulting in a loss of 12-volt control power to the HV batteries. This, in turn could result in a loss of vehicle propulsion.

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
