Hale Products Weldon UV800 Display Unit recalled for touch screen failure risk
What this means
The touch screen display in certain Hale Weldon UV800 Display Units may stop responding or fail to power on. This prevents activation of exterior emergency lights and other emergency equipment, which can reduce vehicle visibility to other drivers and delay emergency response.
- Contact Hale customer service at 1-800-533-4569 or reference recall number SB-189.
- Hale will provide a free firmware update and install a monitoring system.
