2013 E-ONE TYPHOON Recalls (9)

Campaign:
13V601000 on 12/03/2013
Component:
Seat belts:front:buckle assembly
Manufactured:
12/31/2012 - 11/20/2013
Affected:
10
Defect:
E-one incorporated (e-one) is recalling certain model year 2013 model typhoon and cyclone ii fire fighting vehicles equipped with immi-brand l9 seat belt buckles. when the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."
Consequence:
If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
Correction:
E-one will notify owners and dealers will inspect the seat belt buckle, and if necessary, replace the seat belt buckles, free of charge. the recall is expected to begin on, or about, january 17, 2014. customers may contact e-one 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.

Campaign:
14V217000 on 04/27/2014
Component:
Electrical system: software
Manufactured:
03/18/2013 - 04/14/2014
Affected:
112
Defect:
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.
Correction:
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.
