2020 OSHKOSH S-SERIES
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Oshkosh Corporation is recalling certain 2020 S-Series vehicles equipped with Bendix pressure switches. The plastic threads in these switches can strip when pressurized, causing an air leak that may reduce braking distance and potentially cause the parking brake to engage automatically. If both the front and rear brake switches fail, the brake lights may not operate. These issues increase the risk of a crash.
Oshkosh will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the affected brake pressure switches at no cost. The recall began September 28, 2020. Owners can contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.

As a result of a pressure switch air leak, the braking distance may be diminished and/or the parking brake may automatically engage. If the vehicle is equipped with an affected brake switch on both the front and the rear brakes and both parts fail, the brake lights may not operate. These conditions may increase the risk of a crash.
Oshkosh will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake pressure switch and replace it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began September 28, 2020. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020 S-Series vehicles equipped with Bendix pressure switches. The plastic threads holding the two halves of the pressure switch may strip when the switch is pressurized, resulting in an air leak which, if severe enough, can cause the air system to lose pressure when the brakes are applied. Failure of the front and rear brake switches will also result in a loss of brake light functionality.
