16V625000 · Equipment:Appliance:Air Conditioner

Reported: 2016-08-26 (August 26, 2016) · Model years: 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016

Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 Horton ambulances, models 453, 457, 503, 553, 603, and 623, manufactured November 29, 2013, to March 1, 2016. The affected vehicles may have an improperly sealed Cool-Tech air-conditioning condenser controller wire harness that can allow water to enter the controller housing.

Consequence: If water gets into the controller housing, the controller may short circuit, increasing the risk of an electrical fire.

Remedy: Halcore will notify owners, and dealers will replace the Cool-Tech condenser fan controller assembly, free of charge. Halcore issued an interim notification to owners on September 9, 2016. The recall began on October 26, 2016. Owners may contact Horton customer service at 1-614-317-9856, or by email at warranty@hortonambulance.com
