NHTSA campaign 24V009000 · 56 units potentially affected · filed Jan 9, 2024
What's wrong
Alexis Fire Equipment Company (Alexis Fire) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Apparatus fire trucks equipped with Weldon 8X16 Input-Output nodes. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware in the node may fail to shut off the output pin, resulting in overloaded electrical circuits.
Why it matters
Overloaded electrical circuits can overheat, increasing the risk of fire.
The fix
Dealers will update the firmware, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 22, 2024. Owners may contact Alexis Fire customer service at 1-309-482-6121.
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.
