The issue

On certain fire trucks equipped with tandem steer axles, the tie rod on the rear-most axle may suffer premature fatigue failure. Failure of the tie rod will allow one of the wheels to swing to the limit of its steering stop, potentially causing a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the tie rods.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions de pompiers équipés d'essieux directeurs en tandem, la barre d'accouplement de l'essieu situé le plus à l'arrière pourrait faire l'objet d'une rupture par fatigue prématurée. Si cela se produisait, une des roues pourrait se braquer au maximum, ce qui pourrait causer une perte de contrôle du véhicule et un accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les barres d'accouplement.
