On certain fire trucks, an electrical short in the Advanced Protection System (APS) could result in an inadvertent deployment of the frontal airbags, side curtain airbags and/or seatbelt pretensioners. Unintended seatbelt pretensioner and/or airbag deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could startle the driver, which could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. In some instances, inadvertent deployment could cause minor injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will install an in-line jumper wiring harness to correct the issue.
