2024 Marion Body Works Spartan Fire Metrostar recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Marion Body Works Inc. is recalling certain 2024 Spartan Fire MetroStar vehicles. A defect in the inversion valve may delay park brake engagement, which could allow the vehicle to move unintentionally. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
💥 The risk
Unintentional vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the inversion valve, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 11, 2024. Owners may contact Marion Body Works customer service at 1-715-754-5261.
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.)
