Component:
Structure
Manufactured:

Affected:

Defect:
American lafrance is recalling 1,251 my 2000-2007 condor trucks. the bracket that attaches the hydraulic cylinder to the cab used to raise and lower the vehicle cab for maintenance activities can fail.
Consequence:
If the bracket fails due to the forces encountered when the cab passes the break over point and reaches the end of the cylinder travel, the cab will continue its forward movement until it reaches the ground. if the bracket fails during the lifting segment of raising the cab, the cab could fall unrestrained back down onto the chassis, increasing the risk of injury.

American lafrance will repair these vehicles free of charge. the safety recall began on may 13, 2010. owners may contact american lafrance at 1-888-253-8725.
