Transport Canada recalls
02- Electrical#2016173
6 units affected
Certain vehicles may have improperly installed heater core hose clamps which could allow engine coolant to leak into the passenger compartment and come in contact with electrical components. This could result in an electrical short, causing the vehicle to lose power and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Hot coolant could also come in contact with the occupants of the vehicle and cause burn injuries. Correction: Dealers will inspect and reinstall the hose clamps properly.

On certain fire trucks, the governor/throttle control of the fire pump may have been configured with an incorrect firmware during the manufacturing process. Under certain circumstances, this could cause an unexpected pressure surge to the fire hose, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: The manufacturer will provide a firmware update to correct the defect.

02- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING#16V148000
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.
Risk: 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.
Remedy: 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.
