2017–2020 Sutphen Fire Truck recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Sutphen Corporation (Sutphen) is recalling certain 2017-2020 Fire Trucks. The sealing washer may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.
💥 The risk
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the rail threads and fuel lines for damage, and replace the rail as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a schedule for recall notification. Owners may contact Sutphen customer service at 1-614-889-1005.
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.)
