E-One is recalling 2014-2015 Cyclone II, Typhoon, and Quest emergency vehicles because the front air bag harness may be disconnected, preventing deployment in a crash.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect where a safety system (air bags) may fail to deploy, increasing the risk of injury in a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for structural vehicle defects.

Plain-English summary

E-One Incorporated is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Typhoon, Cyclone II, and Quest emergency vehicles manufactured between October 28, 2014, and August 29, 2015. The recall addresses a defect where the harness for the front air bag system may have been left disconnected from the air bag control system during production.

If the air bag harness is not connected, the front air bag will not deploy in the event of a crash, which increases the risk of injury to occupants. The recall is expected to begin during November 2015.

Dealers will inspect the air bag harness, connect it as necessary, and test the system for proper operation free of charge. According to the source, all affected vehicles have already been repaired, and therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this recall campaign. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-800-627-5050 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
