The problem

Azure dynamics is recalling certain model year 2010-2012 balance hybrid vehicles manufactured on a ford e450 chassis. If the low temperature radiator fans seize, the fuse may blow, which will cause the vehicle control unit to lose power, since it is on the same circuit.

The risk

If this condition occurs, the vehicle will stall and cannot be restarted, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Azure dynamics will notify owners and dealers will upgrade the wiring harnesses free of charge. The safety recall began during february 2012. Owners may contact azure dynamics at 1-866-473-1636.
