On certain emergency vehicles, the engine shutdown system (normally provided to protect the engine in case of malfunction) may not have been disabled during vehicle assembly. Unexpected emergency vehicle engine shutdown, under certain conditions, could hamper rescue operations and place the public at risk. Correction: Authorized service facilities will disable the engine shutdown system.
