2009 E-One Typhoon recalls 3

Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do

Suspension: front

18V17100036 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2008-2015 E-One Typhoon, Cyclone II, and Quest II vehicles, equipped with Timoney Independent Front Suspensions. Inconsistent machining may result in fatigue cracks developing over time in the front axle spindles, causing failure of the spindle and the possible separation of a front wheel from the vehicle.
The risk
A wheel separation from the vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front axle spindle, free of charge. The recall began on April 24, 2018. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.

Electrical system

18V056000196 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2005-2010 E-One Typhoon, Cyclone II, X-036, Cyclone III, SPGL, SPBE, FLM2, F550, I440, and I740 emergency vehicles, equipped with an IOTA 50 Amp transfer switch. Electrical connections at the transfer switch may loosen and cause excessive heat.
The risk
The excessive heat can increase the risk of a fire.
The fix
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will replace the IOTA transfer switch with a Powermax switch, free of charge. The recall began on February 19, 2018. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.

Electronic stability control (ESC)

11V564000220 vehicles affected

The problem
E-one is recalling certain model year 2008 through 2011 cyclone ii, typhoon, and quest vehicles manufactured from may 1, 2008, through november 28, 2011, and equipped with meritor wabco electronic stability control (esc) modules. Under certain road and driving conditions, vehicle body roll and road inclination characteristics may adversely affect the slip angle calculation of the electronic stability control (esc) system. This might cause the esc to perceive an over steering situation and therefore apply the outer wheel brake on the front axle until the vehicle is perceived to be stable.
The risk
If the driver is slow to react during this esc intervention, the vehicle may deviate from the intended line of travel, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
E-one will notify owners and is working with meritor wabco to replace the control module free of charge. The safety recall began on december 16, 2011. Owners may contact e-one customer service at 1-800-627-5050 or meritor on track customer service at 1-866-668-7221.
