CAUGHT RED-HANDED | Fire and Emergency New Zealand has been caught out posting untruths on the NZPFU's own Facebook page falsely claiming that when a truck is taken for maintenance, a replacement is made available #DireEmergency

Two days ago it was a failed charging unit, today it’s a failed solenoid causing this Mount Maunganui fire truck to lose all air pressure less than 24 hours after getting it back on the run #DireEmergency

Porirua’s busiest fire truck is unavailable until atleast 3.30pm after suffering a brake fault. Fleet are urgently trying to source a replacement. A massive shout out to the local service provider, who work exceptionally hard to keep the Wellington fleet online #DireEmergency

Batteries failing. Power tripping. Generators leaking. Cameras dead. This Gisborne fire truck has never worked properly since day one. Now it won’t charge at all. No HAZMAT/Command Unit for Gisborne. FENZ is a #DireEmergency

Auckland was down to one 17m aerial this morning after Ellerslie’s truck broke down again. Meanwhile, Auckland City’s high-reach heavy aerial is still offline as Auckland's dire aerial fleet is grounded. When lives depend on height — Auckland’s out of reach #DireEmergency

This Christchurch aerial is away for routine servicing for the week - its replacement is somewhere in the North Island, rusting away, and out of service - there is no aerial replacement for Canterbury. When lives depend on height — our cities are out of reach #DireEmergency

Napier's #1 frontline fire truck has been out of action for over a week. The 28-year-old backup truck filling in has now broken down with a stuck throttle. This is failure on repeat. And it leaves firefighters — and communities — dangerously exposed #DireEmergency

New Plymouth’s aerial broke down in Waitara this afternoon — leaving no aerial available in New Plymouth or Whanganui. Both cities must rely on Palmerston North — 3 hours away from New Plymouth. When lives depend on height — our cities are out of reach #DireEmergency
