ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
- The defect
- REV Ambulance Group Orlando, Inc. (REV) is recalling certain 2020-2024 Type I, III and IX vehicles. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware may fail to shut off the output pin, resulting in overloaded electrical circuits.
- What it can cause
- Overloaded electrical circuits can overheat, increasing the risk of fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will update the firmware, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 15, 2024. Owners may contact REV customer service 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.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 210 vehicles this is a small campaign: 60% 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 2020 to 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
REV Ambulance vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system once before this, most recently in April 2021 as 21V289000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 24V468000 (structure), 24V281000 (electrical system), 21V289000 (electrical system).
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 December 21, 2023 as campaign 23V873000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
