What's wrong?
The parking brake slack adjuster on the 2022 Orange Ev E-Triever is the part that keeps the parking brake line set at the right tension. When the parking brake is applied, that tension lets the brake hold the truck in place instead of letting slack build in the cable or linkage. The adjuster depends on its anchor pin and mounting nut staying tight.
On affected E-Triever trucks, the mounting nut for the slack adjuster anchor pin was not tightened to the required torque during assembly. When that nut is loose, the anchor pin can move instead of holding the adjuster in position. The slack adjuster then loses its setting, so the parking brake does not hold as intended.
There is no warning sign before failure. The issue is found by checking the slack adjuster anchor pin mounting nut and correcting its torque.

What's the safety risk?
A loose fastener can keep the parking brake from engaging fully. If that happens, the E-Triever can roll away and increase the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before failure, so confirm the recall repair is complete before relying on the parking brake. Repair is free at any franchised Orange Ev dealer.

- Reference recall number 22V790 when you call, and ask whether the fastener was tightened or replaced.
- Avoid relying on the parking brake until Orange Ev confirms the repair, because a loose fastener can keep the parking brake from holding the vehicle.
