2017 Frontline Type I & 2017 Marque Type I + 3 more recall: brakes

⚠️ What's wrong

REV Ambulance Group Orlando, INC. (REV) is recalling certain 2017 Wheeled Coach Type I, McCoy-Miller Type I, Frontline Type I, Marque Type I, and Road Rescue Type I ambulances, built on Ford F-350, F-450, or F-550 chassis equipped with Compressible Liquid Adaptive Suspension Systems (C.L.A.S.S.) made by LiquidSpring. Due to an incorrect torque specification, the rear brake caliper banjo bolts may have been overtightened.

The improperly tightened banjo bolts may result in a partial or complete loss of rear brake power, increasing the risk of a crash.
