Spartan Metro Star: Airbag

Affects Spartan Metro Star · 2011 — about 1 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain fire trucks, the instrument panel warning lamp may not illuminate to alert the vehicle operator of a malfunction in the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Should this occur, the operator, unaware of an SRS problem, may not take appropriate precautions and have it corrected. As a result, the airbags may not deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted), which could increase the risk of personal injuries to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will correct the warning lamp wiring.
