Allison Transmission, Inc. (ATI) is recalling 584 Emergency Vehicle Series 6th Generation Transmission Control Modules (TCM) used in fire trucks and other emergency vehicles. The affected modules may fail to achieve the 4th gear transmission lockup required to activate the vehicle's water pump. Vehicle manufacturers will update the software for these modules free of charge to ensure the pump initiates correctly.
If the transmission fails to lock into 4th gear, the vehicle cannot complete the sequence needed to pump water during an emergency. This failure to deliver water during fire suppression activities increases the risk of injury to both emergency responders and the public.
Free software update for the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
