2005 Spartan RMP 100 recalls
Recall 13V-353: Equipment
Problem: Spartan ERV (Spartan) is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 RMA 75 and RMP 100; model year 2004-2009 RMA 103 and model year 2004-2010 TDA aerial fire vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with rotation interlock magnets that are attached by an adhesive. The adhesive degrades over time causing the magnets to detach.
Risk: Without properly positioned rotation interlock magnets, the aerial position cannot be properly tracked and if the outriggers are not fully deployed, the vehicle may become unstable, allowing it to roll over, causing personal injury.
Fix: Spartan has notified owners, and the rotation interlock magnets will be secured using mechanical fasteners, free of charge. Owners may contact Spartan ERV at 1-800-867-6478, Option 2.
Recall 13V-046: Equipment
Problem: Spartan is recalling certain model year 2005-2011 RMP 100 and 2008-2010 MMP 100 aerial vehicle apparatus. These vehicles are equipped with a single platform inclinometer that may provide an intermittent signal allowing the platform to be tilted more than below the horizontal plane.
Risk: The intermittent signal may allow the aerial platform to be tilted more than below the horizontal plane which could allow the platform to strike nearby objects or people increasing the risk of injury or property damage.
Fix: Spartan will notify the owners, and dealers will replace the single inclinometer with a dual inclinometer installed in a sealed enclosure, free of charge. The recall began on February 25, 2013. Owners may contact Spartan at 1-800-867-6478, Option 2.
