What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where the defect increases the risk of a crash, but no specific injuries or fatalities have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Oshkosh Corporation is recalling certain 2014-2019 S-Series Glider vehicles equipped with a strobe light package in the rear fender. The recall affects 241 vehicles.

The defect involves strobe lights that may have been incorrectly located in the rear fender marker light position. This placement potentially causes confusion for other drivers and results in the vehicles failing to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective devices, and associated Equipment." The incorrect location may lead to wrong interpretation when signaling others, increasing the risk of a crash.

Oshkosh will notify owners and replace the strobe lamp with a steady burning lamp free of charge. The recall began on April 10, 2019. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
