2016–2019 Horton Type I & 2016–2019 Horton Type III recall: backup camera

⚠️ What's wrong

Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2016-2019 Horton Type I and Type III ambulances equipped with ASA Electronics back-up camera displays. The displays may revert back to the factory default settings which may cause the camera image to be reversed.

💥 The risk

The driver may inadvertently turn the wrong direction to avoid an object behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Horton will notify owners and dealers will add a harness relay capacitor module to prevent the image from reversing, free of charge. The recall began June 13, 2019. Owners may contact ASA customer service at 1-800-384-4400 or Halcore at 1-800-447-0343.

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.)
