Wheeled Coach Type I Recall 19V854: Loose oxygen tank bracket could cause tank to fly loose in a crash

NHTSA campaign 19V854, reported December 2, 2019, 4 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain 2018 and 2019 Wheeled Coach Type I ambulances have QR-D-S and QR-TDS bracket assemblies that hold D-cylinder oxygen tanks in place. These brackets can loosen over time, which may leave the oxygen tank unsecured inside the vehicle.

If the bracket is loose and the vehicle is involved in a crash, the oxygen tank can become airborne, creating a serious risk of injury to occupants and others in the vehicle.

Owners should contact REV customer service at 1-855-661-9232 or Ziamatic Corp customer service at 1-800-711-3473. The fix is free: an authorized dealer will provide a replacement bracket assembly or refund the purchase price paid. Check your VIN for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
