2016 Oshkosh S-Series recalls
Recall 19V-092: Exterior Lighting
Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2014-2019 S-Series Glider vehicles equipped with a strobe light package in the rear fender. The strobe lights may have been incorrectly located in the rear fender marker light position, potentially causing confusion for other drivers. As a result, the vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective devices, and associated Equipment."
Risk: Strobe lights in this location may be wrongly interpreted when signaling others, increasing the risk of crash.
