EV charger repair.
EV component assembly.
EV charger repair, module swap, and depot refurbishment for L2 and DCFC network operators. EV component and sub-system assembly — controllers, harnesses, charging modules, thermal management, HMI — for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. ISO 9001 + 14001, NMSDC MBE, Class 9 hazmat. Canton, Michigan, USA.
Chargers Fail. Returns Stack Up. Uptime Targets Slip.
Charging networks under NEVI uptime pressure. Sub-system warranty returns piling up with no depot. Forward-assembly shops built for new-unit throughput don't handle reverse flow — and most operators and Tier 1s don't have their own.
Charger Uptime Is Federally Graded
NEVI funding requires 97% uptime on public chargers. Every offline hour pushes a station closer to failing its mandate, and networks lose funding when uptime slips. Operators need a depot partner who can turn modules around and get swap units back fast.
Returns Are a Volume Problem
Charger components get hit by cars, weathered, vandalized. Sub-system warranty returns pile up with no clear route back. Most charger OEMs and Tier 1s lack the reverse-logistics infrastructure to absorb them without bleeding margin.
Big CMs Don't Do Reverse Flow
Contract manufacturers built for new-unit throughput run forward lines, not depot workflows. Your lifecycle infrastructure shouldn't be an afterthought bolted onto a partner who'd rather build new units. It should be built for what comes back.
Assembly, Service, and What Comes Back.
Lotus sits in Canton, Michigan, USA — 20 minutes from the epicenter of the American auto industry. We’ve spent 31 years building and servicing precision assemblies in the same corridor that anchors Big 3 EV programs and their Tier 1 / Tier 2 supply chain. That infrastructure runs two lanes: EV charger depot repair and module swap, and EV component and sub-system assembly.
Our 300,000 sq. ft. Canton facility handles inbound modules, component-level diagnosis and repair, refurbishment testing, refurbished-unit dispatch, and component sub-assembly under ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015, NMSDC MBE. If you need a US depot partner — not a forward-assembly shop bolted on — the infrastructure is already running.

From Charger Module to Field Return.
One Canton, Michigan, USA facility runs the full EV charger and component lifecycle — sub-system assembly, charger depot repair and module swap, RMA, refurbishment, and reverse logistics.
Sub-Assembly & Integration
Component and sub-system integration for EV OEMs: controllers, harnesses, charging modules, thermal management, HMI. Cleanroom available for sensitive electronics.
Testing & Validation
Electrical test, functional validation, and safety verification. Full documentation and traceability on every unit.
Charger Depot Repair & Module Swap
Failed charger modules route to our Canton facility for component-level diagnosis and repair. Refurbished modules ship back on swap programs — broken unit to us, working unit to the station.
Sub-System Warranty Returns & RMA
Sub-system warranty returns and field pulls come in through our in-house call center and route to the Canton depot for component-level diagnosis, repair, or responsible disposal — full traceability throughout.
Warehousing & Class 9 Distribution
Same-facility storage with Class 9 hazmat handling for charger cabinets, modules, and battery-related freight. Forward distribution to deployment sites or swap dispatch, with consigned-inventory options for predictable network programs.
Refurbishment, Second-Life & End-of-Life Recovery
Refurbishment for units with useful life remaining. End-of-life disposal under ISO 14001, with recycling and compliance documentation.
20 Minutes from the
Capital of the Auto Industry.
Canton, Michigan, USA is where the American auto industry lives and where Big 3 EV programs are anchored. Tier 1 suppliers, charging infrastructure manufacturers, fleet operators, and OEM engineering centers are within a short drive — the legacy automotive supply chain that Tier 1 / Tier 2 EV programs run on already flows through this corridor.
For EV and mobility programs that want a domestic, MBE partner inside Michigan’s industrial corridor — with the facility, QMS, Class 9 hazmat, and depot built for forward and reverse flow — the address matters. Backed by warehousing and post-sale services in the same building.
- Canton, Michigan, USA — metro Detroit auto and EV corridor
- Class 9 hazmat for charger and battery-related freight
- 12 truck wells for charger cabinets and bulk return freight
- Depot repair, module swap, and RMA already running
Charger networks and Tier 1s generate a steady stream of returns — failed chargers, warranty pulls, field pulls. Our 31 years of contract manufacturing and depot discipline cover both sides: sub-system assembly when you need it, depot and reverse logistics when units come back.
Same facility. Same rigor. New market.
Charger depot built for uptime-graded programs
Module-swap programs, component-level charger repair, and refurbishment — from a US facility with the documentation workflow that operators need for federal uptime requirements.
Depot repair from the same team
Returned units are handled by the same team that assembles sub-systems — component-level expertise, ISO processes, traceability from assembly floor to repair bench.
Domestic, certified, qualified
ISO 9001 + 14001, NMSDC MBE, Class 9 hazmat, with domestic assembly and depot in one Canton, Michigan, USA facility. The credentials EV programs audit against.

ExploreEV Charger Repair & Component Assembly FAQ
EV charger repair is the process of returning failed Level 2 (L2) and DC fast charging (DCFC) units to a central facility for component-level diagnosis, module swap, refurbishment, and return-to-service — instead of field repair or full replacement. Common failure modes: power modules, communication boards, contactors, control electronics, HMI displays, and cables. Lotus runs EV charger repair as a depot operation from Canton, Michigan, USA, with Class 9 hazmat handling for battery-adjacent work.
Failed chargers ship to our Canton, Michigan, USA facility under our reverse-logistics workflow. Inbound units are scanned, triaged, and routed to a technician for component-level diagnosis. Most repairs are module swaps — power module, control board, communication module, or contactor — followed by functional test and dielectric / hi-pot validation. Refurbished units ship back with full traceability, ready for redeployment.
Lotus repairs L2 (Level 2) AC chargers and DCFC (DC fast charger) cabinets — pedestal, wall-mount, and freestanding configurations. Common modules: power modules, rectifiers, control electronics, HMI / touchscreens, contactors, and cable assemblies. Scope depends on documentation and parts access, coordinated up front.
Yes. Most operators arrive with their own platform; we provide the US-based depot, technicians, and reverse-logistics. Given access to component documentation, replacement parts, and any proprietary diagnostic or firmware tools, the manufacturer-grade discipline transfers regardless of OEM.
Lotus provides sub-system integration, harness builds, charging equipment assembly, motor controller packaging, power electronics integration, and small battery pack sub-assembly for EV and mobility products.
Yes. We handle cell-to-pack integration, BMS assembly, thermal management component installation, and final pack assembly and test. Cleanroom and controlled-environment capabilities support the precision that battery work requires.
