The company started an investigation after multiple trucks caught fire in June and the preliminary results are in.
Nikola, the Phoenix-based company that manufactures battery-powered and hydrogen-powered Class 8 rigs, is recalling 209 Tre BEV trucks and has issued a temporary hold on new sales.

The zero-emissions truck startup says in a statement that a single supplier component within the battery pack was identified as the likely source of the coolant leak and that efforts are underway to provide a field remedy in the coming weeks.“At Nikola we take safety very seriously,” said Steve Girsky, Nikola’s CEO. “We stated from the beginning that as soon as our investigations were concluded we would provide an update, and we will continue our transparency as we learn more.
