A2Z Adapter Recall: Typhoon v1 Exchange Program

[The Weatherman]

Do they want us to destroy the old adapter before we get the replacement or wait until the replacement arrives? I am waiting for replacement adapters from both Ford and a2z. I'd like to have at least one working adapter available for use.

Either way. A2ZEV isn’t monitoring the status of recalled adapters too closely.

Just don’t be that guy and let the old one get back out into circulation

Has anyone gotten a replacement recently? I submitted mine a few weeks ago and haven't heard anything since.

Yeah I had to be that guy and call someone out on Facebook whom was looking at making $80 on the recalled one.

Regardless of our personal beliefs on if the gen 1 ones are safe, please never pass that problem on to another. What if Tesla’s concern is correct and someone is left stranded or has a loss of property.

Definitely not worth the couple bucks.

I submitted my exchange on 18 December. Have only received the automated email. I'm assuming they've been taking vacation and etc. I will call in the first week of the new year if I haven't heard anything from them.

I submitted my exchange on 11/14 and received the exchange approved email on 12/23 with new exchange order number. I’m guessing should get the tracking number within a week or two. Just giving you an idea how long it’s taking.

Received my replacement adapter last Friday. I put the request in within days of the email about the recall. Took about 5 weeks from filing to receiving the replacement.

Took about a month - Nov 7th request for replacement submitted, Dec 8 received replacement.

Are you talking about Ford adapters? This is the A2Z thread. I would expect replacements would be shipped in the order the replacements were requested, nothing to do with the original order date/number.

My Bad.

Getting old sucks!

I have both adapters that were recalled.

received my replacement a2z adapter early last week. Put my request in same day that the recall was announced.

Yeah that part sucks. Having two and questioning if you should use them while patiently waiting….and waiting…and waiting.

I bought an A2Z adabter a few years ago. Used it several times, then got my Ford adapter. I got the email from A2Z about the recall, followed the instructions and eventually received the replacement a couple months ago. But there was no return instructions for the old A2Z adapter so I’m just holding on to it and waiting!

FYI, the original A2Z adapter build quality seemed better than the Ford adapter and also better than the replacement A2Z adapter.
