WMTFD RE-DESIGNS TRUCK 502

Many people have asked where has Truck 502 been? Unfortunately earlier this year it was noticed that the truck had multiple areas of corrosion. To repair the areas 50% of the truck would need to be repainted. The WMTFD contacted Ferrara Apparatus and unfortunately they wouldn’t stand behind their work despite the truck only being 7 years old.

Chief Laughman presented the issues to the West Manchester Township Board of Supervisors and they unanimously agreed that the issues needed to be fixed and agreed to share the cost of repairs with the West Manchester Township Relief Association plus to repaint the entire truck to match the new color scheme. But, more importantly to fix any future possibilities of corrosion on the other 50%.

The members of the WMTFD thank the West Manchester Township Firefighters Relief Association, West Manchester Township Board of Supervisors and Senior Management for their support of emergency services. Without their support this repair would not have been possible.

Also thank you to Baker’s Truck and Auto Collision of New Oxford for the awesome repaint and TheFireStore for the graphics work.

We look forward to having the truck for many years to come and serving the citizens of West Manchester Township and surrounding neighbors. ... See MoreSee Less

Saved money in the beginning but Ferrara didn’t stand behind their work or warranty. I try to explain this all the time. Pro rated paint, corrosion, and structural body warranties should never be pro rated. You get what you pay for! I bet this is the last Ferrara they buy. Will be nice matching the rest of the fleet. Looks good!

Sounds like no one should buy from that manufacturer anymore. Just as shady as KME.

Awesome look

Should of gotten a seagrave

Looks great! Shame on Ferrara....I hope those I know that just received delivery of a Ferrara don't have the same issues...

Love the look!
