On certain emergency response chassis cabs equipped with a transmission retarder, the transmission fluid cooler may fail, allowing engine coolant to mix with transmission fluid. This could result in the transmission to not shift into certain ranges, or could lock into a range where upshifting may be restricted, which could increase the risk of a vehicle crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the transmission cooler.
A failure of this component (powertrain) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles equipped with Ridewell independent front suspension systems, critical welds on the suspension cradle could crack, allowing the steering bell crank to separate from the cradle, resulting in a loss of steering. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Reinforcing brackets will be installed.

Certain fire trucks equipped with a Ridewell Independent Front Suspension (IFS) cradle may be missing or have incomplete critical welds at the bell crank support brackets. Lacking or insufficient welds may lead to a complete separation of the bell crank support bracket from the main structure (cradle assembly). A complete separation of the bell crank support bracket(s) could restrict steering movement and result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Ridewell will inspect for missing welds. If cracks are identified the suspension cradle will be replaced. If no cracks are found the required welds will be applied.
