EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS Recall

VT Hackney, Inc. (VT Hackney) is recalling certain 2017-2018 emergency vehicles equipped with Whelen brake lights. Depending on the specific wiring of the vehicle, these brake lights may illuminate when the brake pedal has not been pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Remedy: VT Hackney will notify owners, and dealers will replace the lights. The recall began April 25, 2019. Owners may contact VT Hackney customer service at 1-800-763-0700, extension 2016.
