The problem
PL Custom Emergency Vehicles (PL Custom) is recalling one 2021 Ford E-450 emergency vehicle equipped with a Weldon V-Mux Vista IV Standard Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) used for controlling emergency vehicle lighting and HVAC functions. These displays may experience low voltage spikes and cause the LCD to freeze or become nonfunctional, due to varying electrical installations.
The risk
If the LCD freezes or becomes non-functional, emergency efforts can be delayed, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Dealers will replace the IV Standard LCD, free of charge. All vehicles were repaired October 2021. Owners may contact PL Custom's customer service at 1-732-223-1411.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
