What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling one model year 2015 Typhoon emergency vehicle manufactured March 16, 2015, to October 30, 2015, equipped with a Class 1 Ultraview Touchscreen manufactured by Hale Products. The touchscreen may experience false switch activations that can happen without the operator's knowledge causing accessories to turn on or off.

The risk

Uintended turning on or off of any or multiple accessories such as emergency beacons or automatic snow chains can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

E-One has notified the owner and updated touchscreen software has been installed, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2016. 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.
