The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
- Autocar is recalling certain 2018-2021 Xpeditor vehicles. The turbocharger heat shield may fail and detach from the vehicle. A detached heat shield can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. NHTSA says potentially 577 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- Autocar is recalling certain 2019-2021 Xpeditor and 2021 Legend vehicles equipped with a MRS 7 in., display. The display may restart during operation, resulting in the warning lights not being visible until the restart is completed.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays."
