- Summary
- Certain fire trucks with command cabs fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 207,"seating systems." the rescue body offerings do not meet the pull test requirements. The pedestal seat was mounted by drilling and tapping the cab or body floor.
- Consequence
- In the event of a crash, the pedestal seat fasteners could fail to restrain the seat, increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the seat pedestals. If the seat was mounted with tapped fasteners, the fasteners will be removed and a hole will be drilled to replace the mounting fasteners with 7/16" bolts and nuts. The recall began on August 19, 2005. Owners may contact pierce at 920-832-3249.

Has your Pierce been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Pierce dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
