What can happen

The rear doors may continue to close while an occupant is in the doorway, increasing the risk of an injury.

Nova will notify owners and will update the software for the safety mechanism, free of charge. The recall began July 9, 2020. Owners may contact Nova customer service at 1-800-350-6682.
