Recall campaigns
Defect, as filed: 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."
Consequence: Strobe lights in this location may be wrongly interpreted when signaling others, increasing the risk of crash.
Remedy: Oshkosh will notify owners, and replace the strobe lamp with a steady burning lamp, free of charge. The recall began April 10, 2019. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.

Defect, as filed: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 S-Series concrete mixers manufactured July 16, 2014, to June 30, 2015. The affected concrete mixers are powered with compressed natural gas (CNG) and are equipped with pressure relief devices (PRD) that may not function as designed, failing to vent a buildup of pressure, such as could occur if the CNG tank was exposed to fire.
Consequence: If the PRD does not activate in the event of a buildup of pressure, the CNG tank may explode, increasing the risk of fire and injury.
Remedy: Oshkosh will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the PRD's, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on September 25, 2015. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278. Oshkosh's number for this recall is Emcara 15E-059.
Filed by Oshkosh Corporation (manufacturer campaign Emcara: 15E-059).
Defect, as filed: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain model year 2015 S-Series Front Discharge concrete mixer glider trucks manufactured February 10, 2015, to March 20, 2015. The affected vehicles have Allison HD4500 transmissions that were remanufactured by Valley Truck Parts that may be coated with a thick layer of paint on the torque converter to adaptation kit mounting surface which can soften during vehicle operation. This may result in the mounting bolts loosening.
Consequence: If the mounting bolts loosen, the bolts on the torque converter bolt flange may shear, resulting in a sudden loss of drive power, and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Oshkosh has notified owners, and Valley Truck Parts will remove the paint from the mating surface of the torque converter, and replace the bolts, free of charge. The recall began on May 8, 2015. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.

Defect, as filed: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 S-Series Front Discharge Concrete Mixer vehicles manufactured September 24, 2013, to November 12, 2014. The affected vehicles have air tanks that hold less than the required 12 times the combined volume of the service brake chambers. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence: With the air tank volume being less than required, in certain situations the vehicle may have an insufficient quantity of air to operate the brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Oshkosh will notify owners and dealers will install a larger capacity air tank, free of charge. The recall began April 15, 2015. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278. Oshkosh's number for this recall is VSR-TSB-010.
Filed by Oshkosh Corporation (manufacturer campaign VSR-TSB-010).
