2025 Midwest Fire All-Poly Series

Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

EQUIPMENT

Aug 28, 2025
36 units potentially affected
The defect: Midwest Fire Equipment & Repair Company (Midwest Fire) is recalling certain 2021-2025 All-Poly Series fire trucks. The hose reel mounting plate may crack and fail, which can cause the hose reel to detach from the vehicle.
The risk: A hose reel that detaches can become a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash. In addition, the mounting plate can fail suddenly during hose operation, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy: Midwest Fire will reinforce the hose reel mounting plate, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 26, 2025. Owners may contact Midwest Fire's customer service at 1-800-344-2059.

Recent owner complaints

Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words

No owner complaints recorded for this model year

Either none have been filed with NHTSA, or this vehicle is too new for reports to have accumulated.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

SF732

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Power acumen fuse was not installed on some trucks.

Freightliner Air Horn

The Freightliner chassis horn button on the steering wheel was supposed to control both the city horn and the air horns. The button would work for the city horn but not for the air horn. Freightliner had to change their programming to get the air horns to come on with the button. They both come on at the same time after programming is changed. We are anticipating a formal document from Freightliner to send to customers who are affected by this issue. This informal documentation was sent out to our customers on July 30, 2025.

SF701AB

This is a service campaign from Daimler Truck for 4-door crew cab vehicles, the rear door locks switches only unlock/lock their own door lock.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
