ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
- The defect
- REV Ambulance Group Orlando, Inc. (REV) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Type I and IX vehicles equipped with Weldon V-Mux Vista IV LCD displays used for controlling emergency vehicle lighting and HVAC functions. These displays may experience low voltage spikes, causing the LCD display to lock up or become nonfunctional, due to varying electrical installations.
- What it can cause
- A locked up or non-functional LCD display can delay emergency efforts, which can increase the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- REV has notified owners, and Weldon, a division of Akron Brass will provide a replacement display, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 5, 2021. Owners may contact REV customer servicer at 1-855-661-9232.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by REV Ambulance Group Orlando, Inc. with NHTSA on April 23, 2021 as campaign 21V289000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
