The defect
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2013-2016 E-One Pumpers, Tankers, and Rescue vehicles manufactured using International truck chassis from May 5, 2012, to May 16, 2015. The vehicles are equipped with a manual master body power disconnect switch that activates various side and rear lights as well as the sirens. However, the switch was not linked to the vehicle start circuit, such that an operator may operate the vehicle without the requisite lighting.
The risk
An emergency vehicle operated without side and rear lighting, its sirens, or warning lights, increases the risk of a crash and injury to its and other vehicle occupants.
The remedy
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will install a relay that will interlock with the engine start circuit so the vehicle cannot be operated until the switch has been engaged, free of charge. The recall began on September 18, 2015. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-904-237-1122.
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.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
