The problem
Halcore Group, Inc. (Halcore) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Horton Type I & Type III ambulances. The D-cylinder oxygen tank bracket may loosen, allowing the oxygen tank to separate and become airborne in the event of a crash.
The risk
An unsecured oxygen tank may strike ambulance occupants and increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix
Halcore will notify owners, and Ziamatic will refund the purchase price paid, or provide replacement bracket assemblies, free of charge. The recall began November 7, 2019. Owners may contact Halcore customer service at 1-800-447-0343.
