2007–2008 American Lafrance Eagle Recall

Issued February 11, 2008
Issue
Hazard description
On certain fire trucks, the vehicle cab hydraulic lift system used to raise and lower the cab for maintenance can fail. If the cab is left in a raised position, it may not maintain its tilted upright position. Also, if equipment shifts inside the cab while the cab is in the raised position, it could cause an impact load on the tilt cylinders causing the cab to come crashing down, potentially injuring someone working beneath it. Correction: American LaFrance has not yet provided a remedy. Note: This notice was rescinded upon further evaluation.
