What happened

E-One Incorporated is recalling certain 2010 and 2011 Typhoon, Cyclone II, and Tradition fire fighting vehicles manufactured between January 1, 2010, and July 1, 2011, that are equipped with Trimark cab door mount bracket part numbers 28141-01 and 28142-01. The issue involves mounting fasteners that may not be at the proper torque value, potentially causing the outside door handle mount bracket to rotate out of position. If this occurs, the door may not stay closed and could open without warning during a crash, which could result in persons or objects falling from the vehicle and causing injury.

E-One will repair the defect free of charge through E-One Service Centers or Trimark personnel. Trimark will notify vehicle owners using E-One letterhead. Owners may contact Trimark at 1-641-394-1095 or E-One at 1-352-861-3223 for more information about the recall, which began on July 22, 2011.
