Latest Quantum body complaints
When the right front cab door was opened the pneumatic operated access steps did not lower. Had a person not been standing outside the truck and stopped the occupant from exiting the truck he would have fallen to the ground. This happened to our 2005 pierce quantum in september of 2017 and a injury did accrue. This unsafe condition is caused by the step actuating rod bending and getting stuck in the "steps up position".
After parking the truck when the driver opened his door the steps did not open up and he fell to the ground. After investigating the accident we found that the actuating rod that raised and lowers the steps was bent and prevented the steps from lowering. We feel that the system should have a fail safe and there should be a larger warning label that can be seen from the riding position.
