What is wrong
A WIRE FROM THE STOP LAMP SWITCH TO THE SPEED CONTROL AMPLIFIER IS MISSING. THIS WIRE SENDS A SIGNAL TO THE CRUISE CONTROL TO DISENGAGE WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ON AND THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT DISENGAGE. THIS CAUSES THE AMBULANCE SPEED TO REMAIN CONSTANT, CAUSING POOR BRAKE PERFORMANCE AND LOSS OF SPEED CONTROL WHICH CAN RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.

Recall repairs are free of charge.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
