Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. "Ferrara Fire" is recalling certain 2022 Ultra and Inferno fire trucks, equipped with a Warn Winch and a wireless handheld remote. Water may enter the handheld remote control for the winch and cause circuit board corrosion, which can allow the winch to operate unintentionally.
A winch that operates unintentionally increases the risk of injury.
Ferrara Fire will work with Warn Industries, Inc. to provide owners instructions on how to inspect the remote for corrosion and disable the wireless function by removing the battery pack from the remote. If corrosion or water intrusion is found when removing the battery pack, owners should stop using the remote and contact WARN customer service for a replacement remote, free of charge. All affected vehicles were repaired by June 25, 2023. Owners may contact Ferrara customer service at 1-800-443-9006.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
