What is wrong
Mobility Ventures LLC (Mobility Ventures) is recalling certain 2015-2016 Mobility Ventures MV-1 vehicles. If a rear turn signal stops working properly, the vehicle will not adjust the turn signal flash rate frequency to warn the driver that a turn signal is not working correctly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
What can happen
If the driver is unaware that his turn signals are not working properly, the driver may continue to use the vehicle with turn signals that may not communicate the driver's intentions, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Mobility Ventures will notify owners and dealers will upload revised software into the vehicle's body control module, free of charge. Mobility Ventures issued owners an interim notification on July 30, 2018. The recall began May 6, 2019. Owners may contact Mobility Ventures customer service at 1-877-681-3678.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
