What was wrong

Defect

Ferrara Fire Apparatus, Inc. (Ferrara) is recalling certain 2009-2020 Aerial vehicles equipped with a positional waterway trolley. If the operator attempts to both extend the ladder, and shift from one mode to the other at the same time, the locking tabs can be broken off the locking arms.

Risk

A damaged positional waterway trolley can become disconnected from the ladder and drop to the ground, increasing the risk of injury or death.

Manufacturer remedy

Ferrara will notify owners, and dealers will adjust the proximity switches for units equipped with a positional waterway mode shift timer interlock system, free of charge. The recall began on April 20, 2021. Owners may contact Ferrara customer service at 1-800-443-9006.
