Recall 16V-293: 2015–2016 E-One Cyclone II, 2015–2016 E-One Quest II and 1 more
E-One Incorporated recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on May 12, 2016, covering about 140 vehicles.
The problem
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Cyclone II, Quest II and Typhoon emergency vehicles manufactured May 1, 2015, to March 31, 2016, equipped with pumps to provide pressurized water to aid in fighting fires. These pumps have 6" intake strainers that may have been improperly soldered during production and, as a result, the strainers may come apart during use, allowing parts of the strainer and debris to enter the pump, possibly damaging the pump.
The risk
If the strainer and/or debris enters the pump, and the operator is forced to shut down the pump, reducing firefighting effectiveness, there could be an increased risk of injury.
The fix
E-One will notify owners to check the strainer for missing solder at the joints. Any strainers missing solder will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2016. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612 or Hale customer service at 1-800-533-3569.

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.
