POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
NHTSA #16V624000Reported August 26, 2016 · Midwest Fire Equipment & Repair Company
Potentially affected: 2 vehicles
Defect description
Midwest Fire Equipment & Repair (Midwest Fire) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 All-Poly 2500 series and All-Poly 3000 series fire trucks manufactured October 6, 2015, to April 28, 2016. The affected vehicles may be equipped with certain C20 and C21 split-shaft transmissions from Waterous. This transmission sends power to the wheels of an emergency response vehicle or powers an add-on unit such as a water pump used for fighting fires. A component within the shift unit may be damaged and as a result, the operator may not be able to switch the power output.
Safety consequence
If the power output cannot be changed, once the fire truck arrives at the scene, it may not be able to pump water to aid in extinguishing the fire, increasing the risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
Midwest Fire will notify owners, and dealers will remove the shift unit assembly and replace the clevis pin and retaining rings, free of charge. The recall began on September 1, 2016. Owners may contact Midwest Fire customer service at 1-800-344-2059.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
