E-One Recalls Fire Trucks Due to Electrical Fire Risk

E-One is recalling 408 fire trucks because a wiring defect may cause electrical circuits to overheat and start a fire.

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 (electrical wiring) that explicitly increases the risk of fire, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects.

Plain-English summary

E-One Incorporated is recalling certain 2020-2024 E-One fire trucks, including the Typhoon N, Commercial, Cyclone E, Cyclone N, ARFF, Typhoon, and Cyclone II models. The recall covers 408 vehicles in total.

The defect involves the vehicle's multiplex system firmware. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware may fail to shut off the output pin. This results in overloaded electrical circuits that can overheat, increasing the risk of fire.

Weldon, the equipment manufacturer, will update the firmware free of charge to correct the issue. Owner notification letters were mailed on January 24, 2024. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-237-1122 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
