What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Maintainer Corporation of Iowa, Inc. (Maintainer) is recalling one 2019 Custom Bodies Heavy Rescue emergency response vehicle. The brake relay valve may have an air flow restriction, which may result in an extended stopping distance.

The risk

An increase in stopping distance increases the risk of crash.

The remedy

Maintainer has notified the owner, and a Spartan dealer will inspect and replace the valve, free of charge. The recall began on December 20, 2019. Owners may contact Maintainer customer service at 1-800-831-8588 or Spartan customer service at 1-800-543-5008.

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.
