Service bulletin Motiv TSB-Ring Terminal

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

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.
