Nikola Recalls All The Electric Trucks It Has Built So Far

 Nikola is recalling all the trucks it has built so far because of a seat belt defect. The seat belt anchor assembly design does not allow full thread engagement for the anchor bolt. It may cause cross threading, a condition in which a fastening screw does not engage correctly with a nut.

Discovered during predelivery inspection

  • The shoulder anchorage on the passenger side seat belt was disconnected from the B-pillar adjuster.
  • Nikola will replace the components of the seat belt anchor assembly and the adjuster on all vehicles for free. The replacement component is narrower than the original, allowing the assembly to completely thread.

Milton trial resumes Wednesday

  • Federal fraud trial for Nikola founder Trevor Milton resumes Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
