While the Fire Trucks and [[Downtown Vice City|Downtown]] fire station in [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] features a unique FDVC logo, the [[Escobar International Airport]] fire stations reuse the LCFD's logo, with the "LC" (Liberty City) initials merely substituted by "VC" (Vice City). In [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], there are two fire trucks located outside the Staunton Island station. After completion of the mission [[Karmageddon]] for [[Ned Burner]], entering the fire truck to the left (the player see in the game) will trigger the [[Karmageddon (side mission)|Karmageddon side mission]]. Completion of this will unlock a [[Molotov Cocktail]] spawn behind the fire station. | While the Fire Trucks and [[Downtown Vice City|Downtown]] fire station in [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] features a unique FDVC logo, the [[Escobar International Airport]] fire stations reuse the LCFD's logo, with the "LC" (Liberty City) initials merely substituted by "VC" (Vice City).

Like in previous games, the Fire Department of Liberty City (FDLC) operates [[Fire Truck]]s in their service, and has several stations through out all of [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]] and [[Alderney]]. The motto of the FDLC is "Feel The Burn"; this can be seen in fire houses as well as on all of the FDLC's apparatus. | Like in previous games, the Fire Department of Liberty City (FDLC) operates [[Fire Truck]]s in their service, and has several stations through out all of [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]] and [[Alderney]].

Unlike previous renditions of fire departments, the GTA IV rendition of the FDLC is less responsive towards fire. They do not automatically rush to blazes, and can only be called in using the player's "911" [[Phone|mobile phone]] call. One of the only notable times the FDLC will respond to a fire is the mission "[[Rigged to Blow (GTA IV)|Rigged to Blow]]". | Unlike previous renditions of fire departments, the GTA IV rendition of the FDLC is less responsive towards fire.

In addition to regular fire fighter NPC models, there exists a set of fire chief models which are meant to appear within fire houses, dressed in more formal attire and donning a "Chief" jacket. However, fire chiefs rarely, if ever, appear. | |||
In total, there are at least eight functional station houses scattered all over Liberty City in GTA IV (fire stations in Alderney are not present in [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars|GTA Chinatown Wars]], since Alderney is not featured in the game): | In total, there are at least eight functional station houses scattered all over Liberty City in GTA IV (fire stations in Alderney are not present in [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars|GTA Chinatown Wars]], since Alderney is not featured in the game): | ||
