Known issues on the 2014 ELR. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the electronic stability control system: software could inhibit certain ESC diagnostics on vehicles built without adaptive cruise control, so the driver may not be alerted that ESC is partially or fully disabled, raising the risk of losing directional control. The second covers the front seats, where an incomplete weld on the seat hook bracket assembly can let a seat come loose under a high-load event such as a crash. Owners have filed 17 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From verifying the ESC diagnostic logic to inspecting a front seat hook bracket or servicing the PHEV drivetrain, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2014 ELR.
