CarRecallWatch- Component
- EQUIPMENT
- Problem
- E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Cyclone II, Quest II and Typhoon emergency vehicles manufactured May 1, 2015, to March 31, 2016, equipped with pumps to provide pressurized water to aid in fighting fires. These pumps have 6" intake strainers that may have been improperly soldered during production and, as a result, the strainers may come apart during use, allowing parts of the strainer and debris to enter the pump, possibly damaging the pump.
- Risk
- If the strainer and/or debris enters the pump, and the operator is forced to shut down the pump, reducing firefighting effectiveness, there could be an increased risk of injury.
- Remedy
- E-One will notify owners to check the strainer for missing solder at the joints. Any strainers missing solder will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2016. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612 or Hale customer service at 1-800-533-3569.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
The intake strainers on the fire pumps may have been improperly soldered during production. Over time or during use, a strainer can come apart, allowing pieces of the strainer and debris to enter the pump and possibly damage it.
If this happens and the operator must shut the pump down, firefighting capability is reduced, which could increase the risk of injury. Owners should have the strainer inspected for missing solder at the joints. Any strainer found missing solder will be replaced free of charge. Contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612 or Hale customer service at 1-800-533-3569 for assistance. You can also check your vehicle's VIN for any open recalls.
