DEFECT #1 - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: SOFTWARE


Posted on: 2014-04-28
Description
E-one incorporated (e-one) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 emergency one typhoon, cyclone ii, and quest fire fighting chassis manufactured march 19, 2013, through april 15, 2014, and equipped with vehicle input module (vim) part number 508875.  The vim, used to supply programming inputs that monitor and control some vehicle functions such as lights, warning indicators and some interlock functions of the vehicle electrical system, has software that may experience a defect that affects the operation of the brake lights and other electrical operations of the vehicle.

Consequence
The vim software may cause the vehicle's brake lights to be illuminated even when the vehicle is not braking and may prevent the vehicle's ability to raise its idle when auxilliary equipment is being used.  If the brake lights are illuminated while the vehicle is moving it could make other motorists think the vehicle is stopping/slowing down and increase the risk of a vehicle crash.  If the vehicle cannot raise its idle when auxilliary equipment is being used, equipment such as aerial devices, electrical generators and rescue tools may have reduced performance.

Corrective Action
E-one will notify owners, and dealers will update the vim software, free of charge.  The recall began on june 12, 2014.  Owners may contract e-one customer service at 1-800-627-5050.  

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.

Consequence
A loss of steering control increases the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
E-one will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the suspension assemblies, as necessary, free of charge.  The recall began on october 9, 2015.  Owners may contact e-one customer service at 1-800-627-5050.

Description
E-one incorporated (e-one) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 typhoon, cyclone ii, and quest emergency vehicles manufactured october 28, 2014, to august 29, 2015.  The affected vehicles may have left the production facility with a harness for the front air bag system disconnected.  

Consequence
If the air bag harness is not connected to the air bag control system, the front air bag will not deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Corrective Action
E-one will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air bag harness, connecting it as necessary, and test the system for proper operation, free of charge.  All affected vehicles have been repaired.  Therefore an owner notification letter will not be issued for this recall campaign.  The recall is expected to begin during november 2015.  Owners may contact e-one customer service at 1-800-627-5050.
