Problem Marion Body Works Inc. is recalling certain 2024 Spartan Fire MetroStar vehicles. A defect in the inversion valve may delay park brake engagement, which could allow the vehicle to move unintentionally. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems." Risk Unintentional vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash or injury. Fix Dealers will replace the inversion valve, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 11, 2024. Owners may contact Marion Body Works customer service at 1-715-754-5261.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 23V-631 is the number Marion Body Works assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 24V007000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
