EXTERIOR LIGHTING:LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE
Defect Description
Braun Ambulances (Braun) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Chief XL Type I, Chief XL Type III, Express Plus Type I, Express Type III, and Liberty Type I vehicles. The high contact nodes may cause the module mounted turn signals, backup alarm, brake lights, and rearview camera to turn on intermittently or fail to activate.
Safety Consequence
Failure of vital visual systems reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the node and update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 26, 2024. Owners may contact Braun customer service at 419-232-7020. Braun's number for this recall is 2024-2.
