Defect. Marion Body Works Inc. (Marion) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Fire and Emergency Apparatus vehicles equipped with Whelen brake lights. Depending on the specific wiring of the vehicle, these brake lights may illuminate when the brake pedal is not being pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective devices, and Associated Equipment."

Risk. If the brake lights incorrectly illuminate, it can confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Marion will notify owners, and Whelen will replace the brake lights, free of charge. The recall began March 3, 2019. Owners may contact Whelen customer service at 1-860-526-4078.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
