What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Midwest Fire Equipment & Repair Company (Midwest Fire) is recalling certain 2022-2023 All-Poly Series Tanker-Pumper fire trucks, equipped with a split-shaft transmission and a Class 1 Es-Key multiplex system. A software error may cause a shift from road gear to pump gear, resulting in a loss of drive power.

The risk

A sudden loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Midwest Fire will provide a USB and instructions to reprogram the multiplex system software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on October 6, 2023. Owners may contact Midwest's customer service at 1-800-344-2059.

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.nhtsa.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.
