2019 E-One Typhoon recalls 6

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

Fuel system: fuel rail

21V332000915 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2017-2021 Cyclone 2, Cyclone N, Quest 2, Typhoon, and Typhoon N vehicles. The sealing washer may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.
The risk
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
The fix
Dealers will inspect and replace the rail as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed out on May 28, 2021. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-237-1122.

Power train: axle assembly

20V54600015 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Cyclone 2 and Typhoon ambulances. The lower shock mount bracket may cause the U-bolts to bind and break, possibly preventing the rear axle from remaining secured.
The risk
The unsecured rear axle may shift sideways, resulting in loss of control of the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of crash.
The fix
E-One has notified owners, and dealers replace any of the affected lower shock mount brackets, free of charge. The recall began September 21, 2020. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-888-237-1751.

Electrical system: starter assembly

19V7300001,603 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2013-2019 Typhoon and Cyclone 2, 2013-2014 Cyclone 3, 2014-2019 Quest 2 and 2017 CHSH emergency vehicles equipped with a Cummins ISL, L9, ISX12, X12, ISX15, or X15 engine. The engines do not have a diode in the starter solenoid circuit to improve the longevity of the lock-out relay, resulting in accumulated damage over time.
The risk
The damaged starter lock-out relay may prevent the vehicle from starting, hindering personnel from responding to emergencies, increasing the risk of an injury.
The fix
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will install a diode in the starter solenoid circuit and install a new starter lock-out relay, free of charge. The recall began November 15, 2019. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612. Note: Vehicles previously repaired under recall 18V-019 also need this recall remedy.

Suspension: front

19V59800057 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Cyclone II, 2013-2014 and 2016-2019 Typhoon, 2015-2017 Quest fire trucks. The front shocks may separate from their upper mount on the front suspension. The loose shock may contact and damage the steering gear housing, possibly causing a steering fluid leak and a loss of power steering assist.
The risk
A loss of hydraulic steering assist can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
E-One has notified owners, and dealers will install a new shock mount bolt and nut, hardened washer, and shims to keep the shocks secured, free of charge. The recall began August 28, 2019. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.

Air bags

19V59200010 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2019 Typhoon and Cyclone II fire trucks. Due to improper manufacturing, the cushion of the Inflatable Head Cushion (IHC) and Knee Air Bag (KAB) may detach during a deployment event and not inflate.
The risk
In the event of a crash, if the cushions do not inflate properly, they may not provide the intended protection to the occupant, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air bags, free of charge. The recall began November 12, 2019. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.

Exterior lighting: brake lights

18V606000146 vehicles affected

The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Cyclone II, Typhoon and Quest II emergency vehicles, equipped with Whelen accessory brake lights. Depending on the specific wiring of the vehicle, these brake lights may illuminate when the brake pedal has not been pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
If the brake lights incorrectly illuminate, it can confuse other drivers, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake lights, free of charge. The recall began October 26, 2018. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.
