Vector basemaps were not working on a coworker's old version of Firefox, but worked after updating his browser. I'd like my app to check the Firefox version and give them a warning or replace the selected vector basemap with the raster equivalent. What specific version do I need to look for?

Vector basemaps require WebGL support.

You can check for browser support here.

Here is an MDN article on how to check for support.

It may be nice for the API to revert to the non-vector version of the basemap if the browser doesn't support WebGL
