FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM:FUEL RAIL
- The defect
- Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. (Ferrara) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Inferno, Igniter, and Cinder emergency vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders four, five, and six may fatigue and crack, which can result in a high pressure fuel leak.
- What it can cause
- A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- On engines with 75 miles or less, dealers will install vibration isolators to the fuel tubes. Engines with more than 75 miles will receive new fuel tubes with vibration isolators, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 31, 2022. Owners may contact Ferrara customer service at 1-800-443-9006.
- 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.nhtsa.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 .

How this campaign compares
At 29 vehicles this is a small campaign: 83% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ferrara vehicles have been recalled over the fuel system, diesel 2 times before this, most recently in May 2021 as 21V349000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 23V819000 (electrical system), 23V317000 (electrical system), 22V570000 (steering), 22V409000 (equipment).
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 Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. with NHTSA on January 20, 2022 as campaign 22V020000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
