Posted on: 2016-03-10
Description
Pierce manufacturing (pierce) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 enforcer and saber emergency vehicles manufactured from march 3, 2014, through february 3, 2016. The clamps on the heater hose may have been improperly installed allowing engine coolant to leak into the passenger compartment.
Consequence
If coolant leaks into the passenger compartment, it may contact electrical components causing a shorting of circuits and a loss of function of features controlled by those circuits, including loss of power to vehicle which may result in a stall and increase the risk of a crash. The hot coolant may also contact occupants and possibly cause burn injuries.
Corrective Action
Pierce will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the hose clamp installation. Any improperly installed clamps will be corrected free of charge. The recall began on april 11, 2016. Owners may contact pierce customer service at 1-888-974-3723. Pierce's number for this recall is 74b269.
