What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

REV Ambulance Group Orlando, Inc. (REV) is recalling certain 2019 Road Rescue Type I ambulances. Incorrect material was used for the trip levers used in the rotary latches possibly preventing the doors from being able to be opened.

The risk

Failure of the rotary latch to function could potentially cause a lock-in or lock-out situation, increasing the risk of injury.

The remedy

REV will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rotary latches and cable brackets, free of charge. The recall began October 28, 2020. Owners may contact REV customer service at 1-855-661-9232.

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.
