Reported: 2020-06-04 (June 4, 2020) · Model years: 2019, 2020
Braun Ambulances (Braun) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Demers MXP170E Type I and MXP150E Type I ambulances built on Ram 4500 and 5500 chassis equipped with Compressible Liquid Adaptive Suspension Systems (C.L.A.S.S.), part numbers DS135RS3A, DS135RS3AF and 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.
Consequence: A worn rear brake caliper flexible line may cause brake fluid leakage which may result in a partial or complete loss of the rear brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Braun will notify owners and dealers will replace the rear brake caliper flexible lines and hardware, free of charge. The recall began July 21, 2020. Owners may contact Demers customer service at 1-800-363-7591.

Reported: 2021-03-17 (March 17, 2021) · Model years: 2019, 2020
Braun Ambulances is recalling certain 2019 and 2021 MX170E Ford E-Series, and 2019-2020 MXP170E Dodge Ram 5500 Demers Ambulance vehicles equipped with a sliding attendant seat on the passenger-side of the ambulance patient compartment. The locking pin assembly in the sliding attendant seat may fail under certain loading conditions. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 207, "Seating Systems" and 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
Consequence: If the locking pin fails, the occupant may not be sufficiently restrained during a crash, increasing the risk of an injury.
Remedy: Braun will notify owners and dealers will replace the locking pin assembly, free of charge. The recall began on April 2, 2021. Owners may contact Braun Ambulances customer service at 1-877-344-9990.
