Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA 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.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

5 units potentially affected
The defect: Rosenbauer America (Rosenbauer) is recalling certain 2022 Commercial HV 507, 2020-2021 Commander, and 2021 Panther ARFF vehicles equipped with Cummins generator sets. The lifting cables may be improperly crimped.
The risk: An improperly crimped cable may come out of place during a lifting operation, possibly causing the generator set to fall, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy: Cummins will inspect the lifting cable, and either replace the cable or install a warning label, free of charge. Vehicles were repaired in October 2021. Owners may contact Rosenbauer's customer service at 1-651-462-1000 or Cummins' customer service at 1-800-286-6467.

No owner complaints recorded for this model year

Either none have been filed with NHTSA, or this vehicle is too new for reports to have accumulated.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

TSB24002

STRUCTURE:BODY

A missing weight limit label on certain step components has led to instances where users may have unknowingly exceeded the recommended weight capacity, resulting in damage to the step.

SIL-23001

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The incorrect voltage range for the differential lock solenoid was installed, which may cause the solenoid to short and disable the vehicle. A work instruction can be provided to show how to install a replacement Rosenbauer-supplied solenoid.

Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
