Summary:
      Marion Body Works Inc. "Marion Body Works" is recalling certain 2018-2019 Spartan Gladiator & Metro Star emergency response chassis.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence:
      If additional distance is needed to stop the vehicle, there would be an increased risk of crash.

      Marion Body Works will notify owners, and Spartan dealers will inspect and replace the valve, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began December 27, 2019. Owners may contact Marion Body Works customer service at 1-715-754-5261 or Spartan customer service at 1-800-543-5008.
