The defect
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2016-2019 American Emergency Vehicles (AEV) TraumaHawk ambulances equipped with ASA Electronics back-up camera displays. The affected displays may revert back to the factory default settings which may cause the camera image to be reversed.
The risk
The driver may inadvertently turn the wrong direction to avoid an object behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
AEV will notify owners and dealers will add a harness relay capacitor module to prevent the image from reversing, free of charge. The recall began June 11, 2019. Owners may contact ASA customer service at 1-800-384-4400 or Halcore at 1-800-447-0343.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 19V276000.
