Plain-English summary

REV Ambulance Group Orlando, Inc. is recalling certain 2018-2019 Wheeled Coach Type 1 ambulances. These vehicles are equipped with QR-D-S- and QR-TDS bracket assemblies used to secure D-cylinder oxygen tanks. The defect involves the bracket potentially loosening, which may allow the oxygen tank to become unsecured.

If the bracket loosens, the oxygen tank may become airborne in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury. The recall began on December 27, 2019.
