On certain fire trucks, front tire valve stems may wear against the brake calipers, potentially resulting in a leak and tire air loss without warning while the vehicle is in motion. This could affect vehicle handling, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace valve stems.

Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
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.

Certain fire trucks equipped with tandem rear axles and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) fail to meet the service brake release requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121 - Air Brake Systems. The service brake release time is greater than the requirement and, if service brake release timing does meet the minimum requirements of the Standard, may result in less efficient braking performance and will prevent the vehicle from being moved in a timely fashion. Correction: Dealers will replace the brake hoses with larger diameter versions.
