Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Kovatch Mobile Equipment Corp. is recalling certain model years of Predator Rescue, SS Rescue, SS Aerial, Aerial, SS TDA, Tanker, Predator Panther Rescue, Aerial, Pumper, and Tanker vehicles from 2016 to 2020. If a hydraulic system fails while the cab is being raised or lowered, the velocity fuses designed to lock the cab in place may not activate, allowing the cab to close rapidly and potentially strike workers positioned underneath the vehicle.
KME will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the velocity fuses on each cab lift cylinder at no charge. The recall began on August 29, 2019. Owners of affected vehicles should contact KME customer service at 1-800-235-3928.
