Horton recall: Service brakes, hydraulic
What is wrong
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Horton emergency vehicles built on Ford F450, F550, and F600 chassis. The left rear steel brake line can contact the strut mount when the rear suspension is lowered, damaging the brake line.
What could happen
A damaged line can leak brake fluid, causing a loss of brakes and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace and secure the brake line as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 17, 2024. Owners may contact Halcore customer service at 1-800-447-0343.
