What NHTSA recorded

Incorrect budd wheels of a lower than required load rating were installed on some trucks. The installation of these wheels causes the fire trucks to be in noncompliance with fmvss 120 and may fail during use. Consequence of defect: if the low load rating wheels are installed they may break during use, causing loss of vehicle control which could lead to an accident. Note: trucks should not be driven until corrective action is completed.

Remedy

Install proper wheels.
