NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published
The defect
Braun Ambulances (Braun) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Chief XL Type I, Chief XL Type III, Express Plus Type I, Express Type III, and Liberty Type I vehicles. The high contact nodes may cause the module mounted turn signals, backup alarm, brake lights, and rearview camera to turn on intermittently or fail to activate.
The risk
Failure of vital visual systems reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will replace the node and update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 26, 2024. Owners may contact Braun customer service at 419-232-7020. Braun's number for this recall is 2024-2.
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.
