What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Cyclone II, 2013-2014 and 2016-2019 Typhoon, 2015-2017 Quest fire trucks. The front shocks may separate from their upper mount on the front suspension. The loose shock may contact and damage the steering gear housing, possibly causing a steering fluid leak and a loss of power steering assist.

The risk

A loss of hydraulic steering assist can increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy

E-One has notified owners, and dealers will install a new shock mount bolt and nut, hardened washer, and shims to keep the shocks secured, free of charge. The recall began August 28, 2019. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.

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.
