Recall Description
Custom Fire Apparatus, Inc. (Custom Fire) is recalling certain 2022-2024 Gladiator, Metro Star, FC-94 vehicles. After the fire truck is reversed, the transmission control module (TCM) may fail to achieve the 4th gear transmission lockup needed to initiate the water pump.
Possible Effects
Failure to achieve 4th gear lock up may result in unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, the water pump will not operate which can increase the risk of injury in an emergency.
Action
Dealers will update the TCM software, free of charge. Both vehicles were repaired in May 2023. Owners may contact Custom Fire customer service at 1-715-294-2555.
