Rosenbauer Commander Recall 20V779: Display Can Lock Up, Delaying Emergency Lighting and HVAC Controls

NHTSA campaign 20V779, reported December 15, 2020, 72 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain emergency vehicles have Weldon V-Mux Vista IV Standard LCD displays that control emergency lighting and HVAC functions. Low voltage spikes, which can vary with each vehicle's electrical installation, may cause the display to lock up or stop working.

If the display becomes locked up or nonfunctional, the driver may be unable to operate emergency lighting or other controls when needed. This can delay emergency response efforts and increase the risk of injury.

Rosenbauer will notify owners, and authorized dealers will repair or replace the Vista IV Standard LCD displays free of charge. Owners can contact Rosenbauer customer service at 1-651-462-1000 (recall number 20E-078), and can check their VIN for open recalls.
