2004–2005 Pierce Arrow XT & 2004–2005 Pierce Dash + 3 more recall: suspension
⚠️ What's wrong
Certain fire trucks equipped with holland/neway air suspension systems, a transverse beam castings may fracture under normal loads. If a casting breaks when the vehicle is traveling on a roadway there is the potential for pieces of the casting to become projectiles and the suspension?s transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface.
💥 The risk
This will cause sparks that could potentially ignite and cause a fire.
