Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. The u-bolts securing the front axle may fail.

Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injector for cylinders 4, 5 and 6 may be susceptible to cracking, resulting in a high pressure fuel leak.
Risk: A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of a fire.
Free fix: On engines with 75 miles or less, dealers will install vibration isolators to the fuel tubes. Engines with more than 75 miles will receive new fuel tubes with vibration isolators. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed February 1, 2022. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-8088-686-7278.
Steering › Hydraulic Power Assist › Pump (21V851000, 2021-11-02)
Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. A machining defect may cause pressure to build in the power steering pump and break the shaft seal, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.
Risk: A loss of power steering assist increases the risk of a crash.
Free fix: Owners will inspect and replace the power steering pump as necessary. Owners may perform this work themselves or reach out to one of our service centers to perform the inspection and repair work free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on December 15, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
Electrical System › Wiring › Fuses And Circuit Breakers (21V482000, 2021-06-27)
Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2019-2022 S-Series vehicles. These vehicles were manufactured with 10 amp Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) fuses, instead of the required 15 amp ABS fuses.
Risk: The incorrectly sized fuse may blow during an ABS braking event, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free fix: Oshkosh will provide owners new fuses, a new fuse label, and installation instructions, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 29, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
Power Train › Automatic Transmission › Internal › Shaft › Output (21V125000, 2021-02-26)
Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020-2021 S-Series vehicles. The rear axle output shaft may not have been heat-treated properly, which could cause the shaft to fracture.
Risk: A fractured rear output shaft may cause the shaft or interaxle driveline to detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Free fix: Oshkosh will notify owners, and owners will be instructed to inspect the output shaft, and if necessary, order a new one and replace it, free of charge. The recall began on March 31, 2021. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
Exterior Lighting › Brake Lights › Switch (20V499000, 2020-08-24)
Problem: Oshkosh Corporation (Oshkosh) is recalling certain 2020 S-Series vehicles equipped with Bendix pressure switches. The plastic threads holding the two halves of the pressure switch may strip when the switch is pressurized, resulting in an air leak which, if severe enough, can cause the air system to lose pressure when the brakes are applied. Failure of the front and rear brake switches will also result in a loss of brake light functionality.
Risk: As a result of a pressure switch air leak, the braking distance may be diminished and/or the parking brake may automatically engage. If the vehicle is equipped with an affected brake switch on both the front and the rear brakes and both parts fail, the brake lights may not operate. These conditions may increase the risk of a crash.
Free fix: Oshkosh will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake pressure switch and replace it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began September 28, 2020. Owners may contact Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278.
