PL Custom Emergency Vehicles is recalling approximately 39 Type 1 and Type 3 Ambulance & Rescue vehicles from model years 2020 through 2024. A software error in the vehicle's electrical control system (multiplex system) can prevent the system from shutting off power during a wiring failure or short circuit. This defect can lead to overloaded electrical circuits that overheat and catch fire. Dealers will perform a free firmware update to correct the issue.
A flaw in the vehicle's firmware prevents the system from properly cutting power to specific electrical pins during a failure. This causes the electrical circuits to draw too much power and overheat, which can ignite surrounding materials and lead to a vehicle fire.
