Summary

Rosenbauer America "Rosenbauer" is recalling certain 2021 Commander and Warrior vehicles equipped with Meritor 180 series drive pinions. The rear axle drive pinion may fracture.

Consequence

A fractured drive pinion may contact the brake drop hose, and unintentionally engage the parking brake without detection, or without the brake lights activating, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Meritor will inspect and replace the drive pinion, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 27, 2022. Owners may contact Rosenbauer customer service at 1-651-462-1000.
