- Pierce SABERdate unknownENGINE AND ENGINE COOLINGUS
IF THE INLET OR OUTLET SECTIONS DISCONNECT, HOT EXHAUST GASES CAN VENT PRIOR TO EXITING THE TAILPIPE, CREATING THE RISK OF COMBUSTION AND A FIRE. IF BOTH CLAMPS FAIL, THERE IS A RISK IN SOME APPLICATIONS THAT THE DOC/DPF HOUSING MAY DETACH COMPLETELY, CREATING A ROAD HAZARD.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTRUCTURE:BODY:DOORUS
IF THE DOOR OPENS, THE SCBA CYLINDERS MAY FALL OUT OF THE COMPARTMENT AND ONTO THE ROADWAY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH OR INJURY TO PEDESTRIANS.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEQUIPMENTUS
An unexpected surge in water pressure to the fire hose can increase the risk of injury to the hose operator or those nearby.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRINGUS
If coolant leaks into the passenger compartment, it may contact electrical components causing a shorting of circuits and a loss of function of features controlled by those circuits, including loss of power to vehicle which may result in a stall and increase the risk of a crash. The hot coolant may also contact occupants and possibly cause burn injuries.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSUSPENSION:REAR:SPRINGS:LEAF SPRING ASSEMBLYUS
If the leaf spring spacer block fractures, the pieces may become a road hazard. If the entire spacer block separates from the vehicle, the alignment of the rear axle may suddenly shift. Either condition could increase the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownPOWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLYUS
If the hex nuts are not tightened to specification, the driveshaft may disconnect from the drive axle, resulting in a loss of propulsion and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLYUS
If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownPOWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSIONUS
If the power output cannot be changed, once the fire truck arrives at the scene, it may not be able to pump water to aid in extinguishing the fire, increasing the risk of injury.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEQUIPMENTUS
If the strainer and/or debris enters the pump, and the operator is forced to shut down the pump, reducing firefighting effectiveness, there could be an increased risk of injury.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEQUIPMENTUS
A reduction in water pressure may hinder fire fighting efforts, increasing the risk of injury.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownPOWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DRIVESHAFTUS
If the cap was not properly tightened, the cap may detach from the vehicle and become a road hazard. Additionally, the universal joint may separate and the vehicle may not be able to be driven, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTSUS
The excessive brightness may negatively affect the vision of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTSUS
If the brake lights incorrectly illuminate, it can confuse other drivers, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownFUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM:FUEL RAILUS
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLYUS
Tie rod separation can result in a sudden loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTRUCTURE:BODY:BUMPERSUS
Partially obstructed rear lights can reduce the vehicle's visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTEERING:LINKAGESUS
Steering linkage arm detachment can cause a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownFUEL SYSTEM, OTHERUS
THE VEHICLES MAY LOSE POWER AND STALL. IN ADDITION, THE FUEL TANK MAY RUPTURE AND SPILL DIESEL FUEL ON THE ROADWAY. EITHER OF THESE OUTCOMES MAY CAUSE A FIRE TRUCK OR SURROUNDING VEHICLES TO SLIP OR SLIDE ON THE ROADWAY SURFACE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownSTRUCTURE:BODY:BUMPERSUS
IF THIS OCCURS THE FIRE HOSE MAY DROP TO THE ROADWAY WITHOUT WARNING. POTENTIAL INJURY TO PEOPLE AND PROPERTY MAY OCCUR. THE SUDDEN HOSE DEPLOYMENT MAY ALSO DISTRACT DRIVERS TRYING TO AVOID THE HOSE AND A CRASH MAY OCCUR.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)US
IF THE DRIVER IS SLOW TO REACT DURING THIS ESC INTERVENTION, THE VEHICLE MAY DEVIATE FROM THE INTENDED LINE OF TRAVEL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
- Pierce SABERdate unknownEXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNALUS
The absence of trailer turn signals may confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
