Vanderhall North America is recalling every last one of its 2024, 2025, and 2026 Brawley GTS electric recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs) because of a firmware issue. When a driver lifts off the accelerator pedal, the vehicle can reportedly "maintain speed or accelerate," which is clearly not the behavior a driver would expect when lifting off the pedal. This could, in turn, cause an increased risk of a serious injury or death, according to the Fast Track recall issued through the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.
About 210 Brawley GTS are impacted by this recall, according to information provided to the US CPSC by Vanderhall. This recall was issued on August 6, 2026. Owners are advised to immediately stop driving their Brawley GTS until they can complete the firmware update that is the factory fix for this recall issue.
