The defect
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2017 AEV Traumahawk Ambulances. These vehicles are equipped with a Vanner Incorporated-brand battery isolator module which may overheat and cause equipment failure.
The risk
If the battery isolator module overheats there is an increased risk of a fire. Additionally, if the equipment that is connected to the isolator does not work there is an increased risk of injury.
The remedy
Halcore will notify owners and dealers will replace the battery isolator module. The recall began April 9, 2018. Owners may contact Halcore customer service at 1-800-447-0343.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
A 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.
