2022–2023 Marion Body Works Spartan Fire Gladiator, Marion Body Works Spartan Fire Metrostar: Power Train recall
NHTSA campaign 23V366000 · 2 units potentially affected · filed May 31, 2023
What's wrong
Marion Body Works Inc. is recalling certain 2022 Gladiator and 2023 MetroStar emergency vehicles. After the vehicle is reversed, the transmission control module (TCM) may fail to achieve the 4th gear lockup needed to initiate the water pump.
Why it matters
A fire truck that is unable to pump water increases the risk of injury during a fire.
The fix
Dealers will update the TCM software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 30, 2023. Owners may contact Marion's customer service at 1-715-754-5261.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
