Posted on: 2017-12-11
Description
Midwest automotive designs, llc (midwest) is recalling certain custom vans and camper van recreational vehicles built on 2014-2017 mercedes benz sprinter chassis and 2016-2017 ram promaster chassis. These vehicles are equipped with kidde plastic-handle or push button 'pindicator' fire extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.
