    Exterior Lighting

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    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, in the NHTSA record
    Strobe lights in this location may be wrongly interpreted when signaling others, increasing the risk of crash.
