Defect: Ferrara Fire apparatus, Inc. (Ferrara) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Inferno Aerial Fire Apparatus trucks. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware in the vehicle multiplex system may fail to shut off the output pin, resulting in overloaded electrical circuits.

Defect: Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. (Ferrara) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Inferno, Igniter, and Cinder emergency vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders four, five, and six may fatigue and crack, which can result in a high pressure fuel leak.

Consequence: A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.

Remedy: On engines with 75 miles or less, dealers will install vibration isolators to the fuel tubes. Engines with more than 75 miles will receive new fuel tubes with vibration isolators, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 31, 2022.

Remedy: Dealers will inspect the rail threads, and replace the rail as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 7, 2021. Owners may contact Ferrara customer service at 1-800-443-9006.

Consequence: A loss of hydraulic steering assist can increase the risk of a crash.

Notes on this record

  • Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
  • System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
  • Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
  • A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
  • NHTSA's complaints API and bulk file list no complaint for this make, model and model year in this data build.
