Pierce recall: Suspension
What is wrong
Pierce Manufacturing (Pierce) is recalling certain 2012-2017 Arrow XT, Dash, Enforcer, Quantum, and Velocity fire trucks equipped with the T3 rear steer option. The affected vehicles have a rear sway bar that may detach from the vehicle.
What could happen
If the sway bar detaches, the vehicle may sway more during steering maneuvers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Pierce will notify owners, and dealers will replace and properly torque the sway bar fasteners, free of charge. The recall began on July 11, 2017. Owners may contact Pierce customer service at 1-888-974-3723.
