Certain fire trucks equipped with a Detroit Diesel EPA 07 series 60 engine may contain software which could cause the engine to shutdown unexpectedly when a diesel particulate filter over-temperature condition is detected. Unexpected Emergency Vehicle engine shutdown could hamper rescue operations and increase the risk of property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the engine control logic.
