E-One Recalls 2019 Fire Trucks Due to Air Bag Defect

E-One is recalling 2019 Cyclone II and Typhoon fire trucks because air bag cushions may detach and fail to inflate during a crash.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety-critical component (air bags) that may fail to deploy, increasing the risk of injury in a crash. No injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text, and the agency classification is not provided, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

E-One Incorporated is recalling certain 2019 Cyclone II and Typhoon fire trucks. The recall addresses a defect in the Inflatable Head Cushion (IHC) and Knee Air Bag (KAB) systems.

Due to improper manufacturing, the cushions of these air bags may detach during a deployment event and fail to inflate. If the cushions do not inflate properly in the event of a crash, they may not provide the intended protection to the occupant, increasing the risk of injury.

The recall began on November 12, 2019. E-One will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air bags free of charge. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
