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

Equipment

Summary
Schwarze Industries, Inc. (Schwarze) is recalling certain 2012-2020 Avalanche M6TE, M6SE, and M6SE CNG street sweepers. The outside switch box that controls the position of the conveyor may activate unintentionally while the vehicle is running.
Consequence
Unintentional activation of the switch box can advance the conveyor, presenting a crushing hazard between the conveyor and hopper, and increasing the risk of injury or death.
Remedy
Dealers will install a kit containing an outside switch guard and two crushing hazard warning decals, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on November 23, 2021. Owners may contact Schwarze's customer service at 1-800-879-7934.

Summary
Schwarze Industries, Inc. (Schwarze) is recalling certain 2013-2017 A7 Tornado, A8 Twister, A9 Monsoon, and M6 Avalanche street sweepers. The air brake systems on these vehicles may have been manufactured with the wrong fittings, causing the brake lines to leak air, possibly resulting in the vehicle stopping unexpectedly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence
If the brakes apply and the vehicle stops unexpectedly, it can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Schwarze will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incompatible air brake line fittings, free of charge. The recall began on April 13, 2017. Owners may contact Schwarze customer service at 1-800-879-7934.
