PROGRAM TERMS
This program will be in effect through July 31, 2025. There is no mileage limit for this program.
URGENCY / EXPIRATION DATE
This Customer Satisfaction Program has an expiration date of July 31, 2025, to encourage dealers
and customers to have this service performed as soon as possible.
We recommend dealers utilize their FSA VIN Lists’ names and address to contact customers with
affected vehicles. This will help minimize the number of vehicles that may be unable to DC Fast
Charge. FSA VIN Lists are expected to be available on July 16, 2024

US population of affected vehicles: 123. Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists.
REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM
The vehicles involved in this program may be unable to DC fast charge if the 12-volt battery voltage
falls below 9 volts. This may be due to the charge port actuator locking pin not fully extending.
SERVICE ACTION
Dealers are to replace the charge port actuator assembly. This service must be performed on all
affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.
To assist vehicle owners to have this repair completed when parts are available, dealers should:
• Arrange for a mobile repair at the owner’s location, or:
• Arrange to pick up the owner’s vehicle and drive it to the dealership for repairs
o Re-deliver the owner’s vehicle after repairs have been completed.
o Pick-Up & Delivery and mobile service should be made available for all customers.
Refer to the Rental and Claiming sections for further details.
OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE
Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of July 22, 2024. Dealers should repair any affected
vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

REPLACED FSA PARTS INSPECTION AND SIGN OFF
Effective March 1st, 2021, all parts replaced as part of an FSA repair with a repair order open date of
March 1st, 2021, or later must be inspected and signed off on the repair order by a member of your
dealer’s fixed operations management team or an employee the task has been delegated to. If the
task is to be delegated to a non-management employee, the employee needs to be someone other
than the technician who completed the repair and needs to understand the importance of completing
this task consistently and accurately.
•

All parts replaced as part of an FSA repair should be returned to the parts department
following the Warranty Parts Retention and Return Policies.

•

Inspect the replaced parts to verify the FSA repair was completed.

•

If the FSA repair is found to be complete, the designated employee signs the repair order line
or parts return stamp area (electronic or hand signed) for the FSA repair indicating the parts
were inspected and validated to have been replaced.

•

After the parts have been inspected, they should be handled based on the guidance in the
parts status report in the Online Warranty System (Hold, Return, CORE, Scrap, etc.). Please
visit FMCDEALER > PARTS & SERVICE > WARRANTY ADMINISTRATION & WARRANTY
PARTS RETURN for the latest Immediate Scrap List information.

This process is subject to review during warranty audits for FSA repairs with a repair order
open date of March 1st, 2021, or later. Any eligible FSA claims requiring parts replacement
found not to have been inspected and signed off during a warranty audit will be subject to
chargeback and consideration for enrollment into the Dealer Incomplete Recall Repair
Process.
Note: Other approvals (electronic or handwritten) for add-on repair lines, dealer-owned vehicle
repairs, and repeat repairs do not qualify as FSA parts inspection approvals. The post-repair FSA
parts inspection process (electronic or handwritten) is independent of other warranty approval
requirements. The approval by the designated employee implies that the FSA parts were found to be
replaced and must be able to be identified on the Repair Order. If multiple FSAs require approval on a
single Repair Order, each applicable occurrence will require individual post-repair approval by the
designated employee.
