Summary

Braun Ambulances "Braun" is recalling certain 2022 Demers MXP153E ambulances. The rear battery compartment may be missing the ventilation hole.

Consequence

A lack of ventilation may cause the battery to over charge and emit battery vapor, increasing the risk of an injury and/or fire.

Remedy

Owners are advised not to drive their ambulances until the remedy has been completed. Dealers will drill a hole and install a filter in the rear battery compartment, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 12, 2023. Owners may contact Braun's customer service at 1-877-344-9990.
