Fatal crashes in the US
From 2020 to 2023, 10 S-Series vehicles were involved in crashes on US public roads in which someone died, and 0 people died inside them. These are counts, not crash rates: a model with more cars on the road shows up more often, and people killed outside the vehicle are not counted here.

Recalls
30 campaigns cover the S-Series; the latest 12 are below.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2024-2025 S-Series vehicles. The front axle housing wall thickness may not be sufficient and can cause the axle to fail.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2022-2024 S-Series vehicles. The throttle pedal assembly may contain an oversized magnet carrier, slowing the responsiveness or causing the pedal to stick.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series 2.0 Concrete Mixers. Incorrectly installed alternator electrical cable clamps may rub against the vehicle frame or hydraulic hose, possibly damaging the alternator cables.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. The u-bolts securing the front axle may fail.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injector for cylinders 4, 5 and 6 may be susceptible to cracking, resulting in a high pressure fuel leak.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. A machining defect may cause pressure to build in the power steering pump and break the shaft seal, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. These vehicles were manufactured with 10 amp Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) fuses, instead of the required 15 amp ABS fuses.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2021 S-Series vehicles. The auxiliary axles may not have been properly secured and may detach.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. The rear axle output shaft may not have been heat-treated properly, which could cause the shaft to fracture.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020 S-Series vehicles equipped with Bendix pressure switches. The plastic threads holding the two halves of the pressure switch may strip when the switch is pressurized, resulting in an air leak which, if severe enough, can cause the air system to lose pressure when the brakes are applied. Failure of the front and rear brake switches will also result in a loss of brake light functionality.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2018-2019 S-Series Mixer vehicles equipped with Cummins X12 engines with two hydraulic lines. The hydraulic hoses may have been unintentionally switched and installed to the wrong location, which can cause a loss of hydraulic assist steering.
Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2014-2019 S-Series Glider vehicles equipped with a strobe light package in the rear fender. The strobe lights may have been incorrectly located in the rear fender marker light position, potentially causing confusion for other drivers. As a result, the vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective devices, and associated Equipment."
