Summary

Pierce Manufacturing is recalling 5 of its 2016-2022 Ascendant 107' Aerials and 110' Platforms mounted on single rear axle Enforcer chassis. These vehicles have galvanized stabilizer beams that may develop cracks over time. Dealers will inspect and replace the affected stabilizer beams as necessary, free of charge.
