Plain-English summary

E-One Incorporated is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Cyclone II, Quest II, and Typhoon emergency vehicles manufactured between May 1, 2015, and March 31, 2016. The recall affects 140 vehicles equipped with pumps that provide pressurized water for firefighting.

The defect involves 6-inch intake strainers that may have been improperly soldered during production. As a result, the strainers may come apart during use, allowing parts of the strainer and debris to enter the pump. This can potentially damage the pump. If the pump is forced to shut down, firefighting effectiveness is reduced, which could increase the risk of injury.

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.
