What's wrong?
The 2023-2024 Orange Ev Husk-E terminal truck uses rear tires, rims, and a federal placard to set the load the rear axle is rated to carry. The tires and rims support the truck's weight and cargo load, while the placard tells an operator the rear Gross Axle Weight Rating, the limit for that axle.
On affected trucks, the installed Continental Terminal Transport 300/80 R22.5 TL tires are industrial tires, not tires certified for FMVSS 120 use. The rims are rated for 11,025 lbs., so the true rear axle rating is lower than the rating printed on the certification label. That mismatch means an operator can load the truck according to the label while the rear tires and rims are not rated for that load.
There is no warning sign before failure. An operator should not expect a dashboard light, tire message, or visible placard clue to identify the problem before the tires or rims are overloaded.
Who's affected?
All listed tire, wheel hardware, and label components point to the same Continental Terminal Transport 300/80 R22.5 TL industrial tire.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
An incorrect weight rating and tire and rim setup can leave the Husk-E loaded beyond its safe limit without the owner realizing it. Overloading changes how the vehicle handles and increases the risk of a crash. Check loading labels and schedule the placard replacement promptly. Repair will be free at any franchised Orange Ev dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023-2024 Orange Ev Husk-E is included in this recall.
- Watch for the Orange Ev owner letter mailed August 18, 2025, and keep it with the truck records.
- Call Orange Ev customer service at 1-866-688-5223 and reference recall number 25V122 when you ask about the free federal placard replacement.
- Keep load planning tied to the truck's installed tire and rim ratings until Orange Ev replaces the incorrect rear GAWR federal placard.
- Avoid overloading the truck while the incorrect placard remains in place.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Orange Ev technician replaces the federal placard with corrected rear Gross Axle Weight Rating information for the 2023-2024 Husk-E. The final dealer repair will be free once Orange Ev opens it, and parts and labor are covered under the recall. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because all affected trucks are covered under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
