Recalls- Front suspension shocks. Recall 19V598000 affects 57 vehicles where front shocks may separate from their upper mount, risking a steering fluid leak and loss of power steering assist. The fix includes installing a new shock mount bolt, nut, hardened washer, and shims. Dealers perform this repair free of charge since August 2019.
- Starter assembly electrical defect. Recall 19V730000 covers 1,603 vehicles with starter solenoid circuits lacking a diode, causing damage to the lock-out relay. This may prevent the vehicle from starting and impair emergency response. Owners receive notification to have a diode and a new starter lock-out relay installed at no cost starting November 2019.
- Airbag inflation failure. Recall 19V592000 involves 10 trucks where inflatable head cushions and knee airbags may detach and fail to inflate during deployment. Dealers will replace the defective airbags free of charge as of November 2019.
- Fuel rail leaks. Recall 21V332000 impacts 915 vehicles with improperly seated sealing washers that allow high-pressure fuel rail leaks. The risk includes fire hazard. Dealers inspect and replace the fuel rail as needed at no cost. Owner notification began May 2021.
- Rear suspension U-bolt failure. Recall 20V546000 affects 15 ambulances with lower shock mount brackets that cause U-bolts to bind and break. This can lead to rear axle detachment and loss of vehicle control. Dealers replace affected brackets free of charge since September 2020.
- Power train axle assembly. The same recall 20V546000 also addresses the rear axle issue caused by the lower shock mount bracket binding U-bolts, with the same risks and repairs as detailed above.
- Brake light malfunction. Recall 18V606000 covers 146 vehicles fitted with Whelen accessory brake lights that may illuminate without brake pedal application, violating FMVSS 108 standards and potentially confusing drivers. Dealers replace the brake lights free of charge. The recall started October 2018.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs, safety defects, or unresolved recall concerns might have rights under their state’s lemon law. Consulting legal resources regarding these protections may be beneficial.

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.

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.
2019 E-ONE TYPHOON
10 vehicles affected
AIR BAGS
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.
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.
2019 E-ONE TYPHOON
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.
2019 E-ONE TYPHOON
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.
2019 E-ONE TYPHOON
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.
