- The problem
- Sutphen is recalling certain model year 2006-2008 aerials and model year 2007-2008 pumper fire trucks equipped with detroit diesel series 60 engines. The software on these engines may cause the engine to shut down unexpectedly when a diesel particulate filter over-temperature condition is detected.
- The risk
- Unexpected emergency vehicle engine shutdown increases the risk of a crash and could hamper rescue operations and put the transported passenger at risk.
- The fix
- Sutphen will notify owners and detroit diesel will repair the vehicles free of charge by reprogramming the engine motor control module. Please see daimler trucks/detroit diesel's defect report 10e-005. The safety recall began no october 15, 2010. Owners may contact detroit diesel at 1-800-547-0712 or on line http://www.Detroitdiesel.Com/supportnetwork.
