  45 unités visées

  Sur certains camions de pompier, des conditions de fonctionnement spécifiques (comme des courbes serrées, successives et très relevées dans des directions opposées) pourraient déclencher le système de contrôle électronique de la stabilité. En conséquence, le système de contrôle pourraient serrer inutilement l'un des freins avant afin de corriger le survirage perçu. Cela pourrait faire dévier le véhicule de la trajectoire prévue, ce qui augmenterait les risques d'accident, endommagerait des biens matériels ou blesserait quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le module du système de contrôle de la stabilité.

  Sur certains camions de pompiers, les compartiments d'entreposage des bouteilles des appareils respiratoires autonomes pourraient avoir été munis de loquets de porte comportant un vice de fabrication. Si la porte d'un compartiment s'ouvrait pendant que le véhicule roule, des articles entreposés pourraient tomber du véhicule et percuter un autre véhicule, un objet stationnaire ou une personne se trouvant à proximité, ce qui endommagerait des biens matériels ou blesserait quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront modifier les loquets de porte.
