The problem

REV Ambulance Group Orlando, INC.

Due to an incorrect torque specification, the rear brake caliper banjo bolts may have been overtightened.

The risk

The improperly tightened banjo bolts may result in a partial or complete loss of rear brake power, increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

REV will notify owners, and LiquidSpring dealers will replace the rear brake banjo bolts, free of charge. The recall began during April 2017. Owners may contact LiquidSpring customer service at 1-765-474-7816 extension 1 or by email at service@liquidspring.com or REV customer service at 1-800-628-8178.
