2016 Aev Traumahawk recall: equipment
⚠️ What's wrong
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2016 AEV Traumahawk ambulances manufactured March 20, 2016, to October 28, 2016. The affected vehicles are equipped with Stryker Medical Performance cot mounts that may not securely attach the cot into place.
💥 The risk
If the cot dislodges from its mount, serious injury may occur to the patient and/or to individuals within the ambulance body.
🔧 The fix
All affected vehicles have been contacted by Stryker, received a remedy kit and the vehicles have been repaired, therefore an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact AEV customer service at 1-800-374-9749.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
