For the 2002 Road Rescue Ambulance. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your Road Rescue 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 Road Rescue dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2002 Road Rescue Ambulance recalls, newest first

April 15, 2005NHTSA 05V153000216 vehicles potentially affected

Electrical system

Summary
On certain ambulances equipped with the "smart display" electrical system containing field-effect transistor (fet) output boards, the power distribution panel for the smart display are equipped with type 1 circuit protection. This allows the board to shut down if an over-heating condition or an over current condition is detected. As the board cools down, it comes back on, allowing the board to continually cycle leading to possible failure.
Consequence
The boards can possibly overheat or melt down, which could cause a fire.
Remedy
Dealers will install a new transistor fet board that contains type 2 circuit protection free of charge. The recall began on September 6, 2005. Owners may contact road rescue at 1-800-328-3804.

Exterior lighting

Summary
Certain ambulances fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (FMVSS) no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." no side or rear red reflex reflectors were installed as required by the standard.
Consequence
During emergency situations at night without any reflectors, the rear of the ambulance may not be as visible to other vehicles increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
