Vehicle recall 16V567000 · August 1, 2016

E-One Cyclone II and Typhoon

The affected vehicles may be equipped with certain C20 and C21 split-shaft transmissions from Waterous.

Summary

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Cyclone II vehicles manufactured July 31, 2015, to June 12, 2016, 2015-2016 Typhoon vehicles manufactured September 21, 2015, to July 27, 2016, 2015 Freightliner M2 vehicles manufactured November 3, 2015, and 2015 International 7400 vehicles manufactured November 3, 2015. The affected vehicles may be equipped with certain C20 and C21 split-shaft transmissions from Waterous. This transmission sends power to the wheels of an emergency response vehicle or powers an add-on unit such as a water pump used for fighting fires. A component within the shift unit may be damaged and as a result, the operator may not be able to switch the power output.

Consequence

If the power output cannot be changed, once the fire truck arrives at the scene, it may not be able to pump water to aid in extinguishing the fire, increasing the risk of injury.

Remedy

E-One will notify owners and will supply a remedy kit that replaces the clevis pin and retaining rings, free of charge. The recall began on September 8, 2016. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.
