E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2010-2016 tandem axle Cyclone vehicles manufactured July 15, 2010, to June 12, 2016. The affected vehicles are equipped with FIREMAAX suspension and aerial jack legs. While the vehicle is parked with the jack legs extended, the FIREMAAX suspension air bags may lose pressure. When the jack legs are retracted, the air bags may be wrinkled, resulting in damage and the possible failure of the pressurized suspension air bags.

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Typhoon, Quest, and Cyclone fire trucks manufactured January 1, 2014, to October 11, 2016, and equipped with aerial ladders. Due to a design change, the filter for the aerial ladder may leak hydraulic fluid.

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2012-2016 E-One Pumpers manufactured January 1, 2012, to June 23, 2016 and built on a Ford F-550 chassis modified to be equipped with driveline-driven ("split-shaft") pumps. The bearings and drive shafts of the pumps may loosen due to high vibration levels, such as those created when the vehicle is driven above 65 MPH.

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.

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.

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 E-One Cyclone II and Typhoon vehicles manufactured January 1, 2014, to May 31, 2016, equipped with certain Class 1 Es-Key power control modules manufactured by Hale Products.

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.
