Farber Specialty Vehicles is recalling certain 2025 45 MCXCR and 2025-2026 HX620 SBA 6X4 emergency vehicles because the touchscreen display may stop responding or fail to power on, which prevents operators from activating exterior emergency lights and firefighting equipment. A non-functioning display can reduce visibility to other drivers and delay emergency response. Farber Specialty will update the firmware and repair the power line at no charge, with owner notifications expected to be mailed June 25, 2026.
