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 299 vehicles this is a small campaign: 56% of the 16,360 vehicle recalls with a published size filed from 1995 up to this one are as large or larger. The middle campaign among them covers 482. It covers model years 2010 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 12 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Pierce vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 11 times before this, most recently in March 2022 as 22V116000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 65 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 8 complaints with NHTSA, 7 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in July 2017, 5 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 13 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V217000 (equipment), 24V127000 (structure), 23V823000 (electrical system), 23V096000 (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 Pierce Manufacturing with NHTSA on October 27, 2022 as campaign 22V809000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
