SUSPENSION:REAR
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Horton Emergency Vehicles (HEV) Type I & Type III ambulances built on a Ram 4500 or 5500 chassis and equipped with Compressible Liquid Adaptive Suspension Systems (C.L.A.S.S.), part numbers DS135RS3A, DS135RS3AF, DS135RS3-DM. The rear brake caliper flexible line may have been routed so that it contacts a suspension component, possibly causing excessive wear and a loss of rear brakes.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Horton Type I and Type III ambulances, equipped with Whelen accessory brake lights. Depending on the specific wiring of the vehicle, these brake lights may illuminate when the brake pedal has not been pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
