The issue

On chassis cabs equipped with a pressure governor or hand throttle, a software defect could cause a surge in engine speed without warning when the fire apparatus is in "pump mode". Increased engine speed could cause an increase in water pressure at the end of the fire hose, which could increase the risk of personal injury. Correction: Dealers will update the software.

Description (français)

Sur les châssis-cabines munis d'un régulateur de pression ou d'un accélérateur à main, une défaillance logicielle pourrait causer une augmentation du régime du moteur sans avertissement lorsque l'engin d'incendie est en mode de pompage. Un régime accru pourrait causer une augmentation de la pression d'eau à l'extrémité du tuyau d'incendie, ce qui pourrait augmenter le risque de blessures. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront mettre à jour le logiciel.
