⚠️ What's wrong
PL Custom Emergency Vehicles (PL Customs) is recalling certain 2020-2024 Ambulance & Rescue Vehicle Type 1 and Type 3 vehicles. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware in the vehicle multiplex system may fail to shut off the output pin, resulting in overloaded electrical circuits.
💥 The risk
Overloaded electrical circuits can overheat, increasing the risk of fire.
