12V523000 · Electrical System:Software

Reported: 2012-10-31 (October 31, 2012)

Pierce is recalling certain model year 2006-2008 Contender fire trucks manufactured from December 26, 2006, through March 28, 2008, equipped with a Caterpillar C9 engine due to an engine software problem which can cause the engine's RPM's to surge while in pump mode.

Consequence: The surge can cause a fluctuation in water pressure from the fire hose and could result in personal injury.

Remedy: Pierce has already remedied all of the affected vehicles by updating the engine software, therefore, owner notifications will not be sent. Owners may contact Pierce at 1-920-832-3000.
