FMCSA placed the Safe ELD platform for both iOS and Android, along with the MyLogs ELD, into revoked status after determining the devices failed to meet federal technical requirements tied to ELD regulations.

The removals are part of FMCSA’s ongoing effort to eliminate noncompliant devices from the federal registry.

“Since January 2025, FMCSA has taken decisive action — removing 67 noncompliant devices that failed to meet federal standards — to protect the integrity of the ELD program, and we will continue to identify and remove any device that falls short,” said FMCSA Administrator Derek Barrs.

For carriers and drivers currently using the affected systems, July 7 is the key deadline.

Drivers Must Transition to Compliant Logging Systems

Motor carriers have up to 60 days to replace the revoked devices with compliant ELDs. Until replacements are installed, drivers using the affected systems are required to track hours of service records through paper logs or approved logging software.

FMCSA said enforcement officers are being encouraged not to issue citations for no-logbook violations or for failure to use a registered ELD before July 7, as long as drivers can still provide valid hours-of-service documentation through backup records.

During inspections, officers may request paper logs, logging software records, or ELD display information while carriers complete the transition process.

After July 7, however, drivers and carriers continuing to use the revoked systems may be treated as operating without a compliant ELD during roadside inspections and enforcement actions.

FMCSA Encourages Carriers Not To Wait

According to FMCSA, the devices were removed because the companies failed to meet minimum technical requirements established under federal ELD regulations tied to Part 395 compliance standards.

Questions sent to the ELD providers regarding the revocations and plans reportedly went unanswered as of publication.

FMCSA also noted the devices could potentially return to approved status if the providers correct the identified deficiencies. If that happens, the agency said it would restore the devices to the approved registry and notify the industry.

Still, regulators are encouraging carriers to move forward with replacements now rather than risk future compliance issues tied to revoked systems.

For truck drivers, the latest removals highlight how quickly ELD compliance status can change as FMCSA continues reviewing devices listed on the federal registry.

The post Truck Drivers Using These ELDs Have Until July 7 To Replace Them appeared first on Truck Drivers USA.

According to FMCSA, these devices were moved to the Revoked Devices list because the providers “failed to meet the minimum requirements established in Title 49 CFR Appendix A to Subpart B of Part 395.”

The Latest ELDs Removed (Effective Oct. 17)

Here are the devices that are now officially revoked:

ART KILIM INC
• ELD Name: PREMIUM ELD
• Model Number: PMM
• Identifier: PMM492

Clean Aura Corp
• ELD Name: TRUE LOGBOOK
• Model Number: 2TRUL
• Identifier: TRL584

Xplore Tech Inc
• ELD Name: Xplore ELD
• Model Number: XPLELD
• Identifier: XPLORE

KAMI ELD
• ELD Name: KAMI ELD
• Model Number: KAME X456
• Identifier: KAM683

Evo ELD Inc.
• ELD Name: EVO ELD 1
• Model Number: EVO 1
• Identifier: G711H2

This isn’t an isolated move. FMCSA has been steadily purging noncompliant devices all year. Since January, multiple rounds of removals have hit carriers who weren’t paying close attention.

What Drivers and Carriers Are Required To Do

FMCSA is giving fleets 60 days to swap out any of the revoked devices. Here’s what they’re instructing carriers to do immediately:

1. Stop using the revoked ELD.
   Switch over to paper logs or logging software to stay compliant.
2. Install a registered replacement device by Dec. 16.
   Only devices still on FMCSA’s Registered Devices list are acceptable.

FMCSA also noted that inspectors should not issue violations for 395.8(a)(1) No record of duty status or 395.22(a) Failing to use a registered ELD before the deadline, as long as drivers can provide logs using paper, software, or the device display as a backup.

After Dec. 16, anyone still using these revoked units will be treated as operating with no ELD at all. FMCSA stated that drivers using the banned devices after that date should be cited under 395.8(a)(1) and placed out of service following Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance CVSA rules.

Can These Devices Come Back?

FMCSA made it clear that if the providers fix their compliance issues, they’ll add the devices back to the Registered Devices list and notify the industry of the change. But the agency also added a warning. FMCSA said it strongly encourages motor carriers to act now to avoid compliance issues in the event that the deficiencies are not addressed by the ELD provider.

If you want to stay ahead, check the official FMCSA Registered Devices list and make sure your model is still listed.

The post Five More ELDs Get Booted — Here’s What Drivers Need to Know appeared first on Truck Drivers USA.

According to the agency, the following devices are no longer compliant with FMCSA requirements:

TT ELD PT30 | Model Number: ARN752 | ELD Identifier: CZGS10 | Provider: TT ELD Inc

ELOG42 | Model Number: ERS | ELD Identifier: ERS156 | Provider: Leko Inc

RENAISSANCE ELD | Model Number: RNSSNC | ELD Identifier: RNS592 | Provider: Renaissance ELD

The decision took effect on September 4, 2025, after FMCSA determined these devices did not meet the agency’s minimum standards.

What drivers and carriers need to know

Motor carriers currently using any of the revoked devices have a 60-day grace period to transition to a compliant solution. That deadline falls on November 3, 2025.

In the meantime, FMCSA has provided clear instructions:

• Stop using the revoked ELDs and switch temporarily to paper logs or logging software to record hours of service.
• Install and begin using an approved ELD from FMCSA’s Registered Devices list before the November deadline.

Until November 3, enforcement officers have been asked to show flexibility. Instead of issuing citations for “No record of duty status” or “Failing to use a registered ELD,” they are expected to review hours-of-service information through paper logs, logging software, or by using the ELD display as a backup method.

However, once the November cutoff arrives, the rules tighten. Any carrier still operating with one of the revoked devices will be considered as operating without an ELD, and drivers may be placed out-of-service under the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance OOS criteria.

Possible reinstatement

FMCSA stated that if the providers resolve the issues with their devices, the products may be reinstated on the Registered Devices list. If that occurs, the industry will be notified.

For the latest details, including the full list of compliant devices, FMCSA directs carriers and drivers to its official website.

The post Three Electronic Logging Devices Removed from FMCSA’s Approved List appeared first on Truck Drivers USA.

Which ELDs Were Affected?

The two devices taken off the approved list are:

• Walker ELD – Model WAL-R, ELD Identifier WLK790
• SR ELD – Model SR-E, ELD Identifier SRE288

Both were removed for failing to meet the technical requirements FMCSA sets for electronic logging devices.

What Drivers Are Required to Do

If you’ve been using either system, you’ll need to stop immediately and begin logging hours using paper logs or compliant logging software while you transition to a new device. FMCSA is giving drivers and carriers until September 29, 2025, to switch over to a registered ELD.

If you continue using one of the revoked devices past that date, you’ll be considered out of compliance. That includes potential citations for not maintaining a valid record of duty status and the risk of being placed out of service under CVSA guidelines.

What If the Device Companies Fix the Issues?

According to FMCSA:

“If the ELD providers correct all identified deficiencies for their device, FMCSA will place the ELD back on the Registered Devices list and inform the industry and the field of the update,” FMCSA said. “However, FMCSA strongly encourages motor carriers to take the actions listed above now to avoid compliance issues in the event that these deficiencies are not addressed by the ELD provider.”

In other words, don’t wait for a fix that might not happen. If you’re running with one of these devices, start the switch now to avoid downtime or violations later.

Why It Matters

This move follows the earlier removal of multiple ELDs earlier this year. With FMCSA continuing to crack down on non-compliant technology, drivers and fleet managers must stay updated. Checking your ELD’s registration status regularly can help avoid major disruptions and keep you compliant on the road.

The post Walker and SR ELDs Removed from FMCSA’s Approved List—Here’s What Drivers Need to Do appeared first on Truck Drivers USA.

The FMCSA clarified that both devices have been placed on the Revoked Devices list due to non-compliance with the regulations established in 49 CFR part 395, subpart B, appendix A.

In a statement, Blue Star ELD explained that one of its previous ELD versions faced revocation back in May, but it was reinstated shortly after a system upgrade. Although the FMCSA’s registry continues to list the BSE version of Blue Star ELD, the BRS model was formally revoked as of August 15. A representative from Blue Star indicated that the revoked model was tied to their legacy system and expressed unawareness of any recent changes regarding their newer models.

Attempts to reach Reliable ELD for a response regarding this announcement have not yet been successful.

For truck operators and owner operators currently relying on the revoked ELDs, they must immediately stop using these devices and transition to either manual logs or logging software to accurately document their hours of service. Furthermore, it is essential for them to replace these revoked ELDs with compliant alternatives listed on the FMCSA’s Registered Devices roster by October 14.

Motor carriers are granted a 60-day transition period to upgrade from the revoked ELDs to compliant models. Should the ELD manufacturers address the noted issues, the FMCSA may consider reinstating these devices on the registry and will provide updates to the industry.

During this grace period, safety officials are instructed not to penalize drivers utilizing the revoked ELDs under sections 395.8(a)(1) (“No record of duty status”) or 395.22(a) (“Failing to use a registered ELD”). Rather, enforcement officers should request alternative documentation, such as paper logs or logging software, or can depend on the ELD display to confirm hours-of-service data.

Starting September 14, any carriers still operating with the revoked devices will be marked as non-compliant and classified as operating without an ELD. Safety officials who encounter such situations on or after September 21 are directed to cite these carriers under section 395.8(a)(1) and to take the driver out of service, following the FMCSA’s guidelines.

The post FMCSA Discontinues Registration for Two ELDs appeared first on Truck Drivers USA.

Affected Devices

The four affected ELDs are:

• CTE-LOG ELD

• ELD VOLT

• POWERTRUCKS ELD

• TFM ELD

Reason for Removal

These devices were removed because they did not meet the minimum standards as outlined in 49 CFR part 395, subpart B, appendix A. Consequently, these ELDs have been added to FMCSA’s Revoked Devices list.

Actions for Motor Carriers and Drivers

Motor carriers and drivers using any of these revoked ELDs must take immediate action:

1. Stop Using Revoked ELDs:

Revert to paper logs or logging software to track hours of service.

2. Replace Revoked ELDs:

Switch to compliant ELDs listed on the Registered Devices list by Sept. 21, 2024.

Motor carriers have a 60-day window to complete this transition. Failure to comply will result in a violation of 49 CFR 395.8 (a)(1), leading to a “No record of duty status” citation and placement of drivers out-of-service according to the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) OOS Criteria.

Possible Reinstatement

The removed ELDs may be reinstated if the providers address the deficiencies and meet regulatory requirements, enabling them to return to the registered list.

FMCSA strongly encourages motor carriers to act quickly to avoid compliance issues.
