Safety Risk: A fire truck that shifts while the aerial device is being used could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Pierce will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to update the vehicle software and perform an aerial device functionality check. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the software update performed at a Pierce dealership.
