Seven recalls address various system defects affecting suspension, steering, fuel delivery, electrical components, and lighting systems.
Recalls- Front suspension shocks. NHTSA recall 19V598000 affected 57 vehicles where front shocks may separate from the upper mount causing damage to the steering gear housing. This can lead to a loss of power steering assist and increased crash risk. Dealers will install new mount hardware free of charge.
- Starter solenoid circuit. Recall 19V730000 involves 1603 vehicles with missing diodes in the starter solenoid circuit. This defect damages the starter lock-out relay, potentially preventing the vehicle from starting and hindering emergency response. Dealers will install the diode and replace the relay at no cost.
- Fuel rail sealing washer. Recall 21V332000 covers 915 vehicles where sealing washers may not seat properly, causing fuel leaks that increase fire risk. Dealers inspect and replace the fuel rail assembly if needed free of charge.
- Lower shock mount bracket. Recall 20V546000 affects 15 vehicles with a bracket defect that may break U-bolts and prevent rear axle security. This can cause axle shift and loss of control. Dealers replace defective brackets free of charge.
- Torque rod tower. Recall 18V748000 involves 10 vehicles where the rear suspension torque rod tower may crack, affecting handling and increasing crash risk. Owners are instructed to contact the Atlas suspension manufacturer for free replacement parts.
- Brake lights. Recall 18V606000 impacts 146 vehicles with Whelen accessory brake lights that may illuminate incorrectly without brake application. This violates FMVSS 108 and can confuse drivers. Dealers replace the brake lights free of charge.
Owners with repeated repairs or safety defects related to recalls should consider their legal rights under state lemon laws. Persistent issues involving critical systems may entitle them to remedies provided under these laws.

2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
915 vehicles affected
FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM:FUEL RAIL
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.
Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
15 vehicles affected
SUSPENSION:REAR:SPRINGS:LEAF SPRING ASSEMBLY:U-BOLT, LEAF SPRING TO AXLE
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.
Risk: The unsecured rear axle may shift sideways, resulting in loss of control of the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of crash.
2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
1603 vehicles affected
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:STARTER ASSEMBLY
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.
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.
2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
57 vehicles affected
SUSPENSION:FRONT
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.
Risk: A loss of hydraulic steering assist can increase the risk of a crash.
2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
10 vehicles affected
SUSPENSION:REAR
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2016-2018 E-One Cyclone II and Typhoon aerial devices. The torque rod tower may crack causing failure of the tower, possibly affecting vehicle handling.
Risk: If the torque rod tower fails and affects vehicle handling, it can increase the risk of a crash.
2018 E-ONE CYCLONE II
146 vehicles affected
EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS
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."
Risk: If the brake lights incorrectly illuminate, it can confuse other drivers, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.
