What’s wrong with it?

Four Guys Stainless Tank & Equip., Inc.
(Four Guys) is recalling one 2020 Pumper firetruck equipped with an Akron Bass battery-powered 3600 wireless remote controller.
The wireless remote controller’s sleep mode is disabled, and results in the batteries discharging faster than normal.
