What happened

E-One is recalling certain 2010 and 2011 Typhoon and Cyclone II fire fighting chassis, as well as 2011 Tradition and Quest fire fighting chassis manufactured between November 24, 2010, and July 13, 2011, that are equipped with Cummins ISB, ISL, ISC, or ISX diesel engines. The V-band clamp assemblies connecting parts to the diesel oxidation catalyst/diesel particulate filter housing contain T-bolts that can fracture and fail under stress, potentially causing the clamp to loosen and inlet or outlet sections to disconnect. This could result in asphyxiation or carbon monoxide poisoning, fires from exhaust heat buildup, or in some cases complete detachment of the housing, creating a road hazard.

E-One is working with Cummins to identify and notify owners of the recall. Authorized Cummins dealers will perform repairs free of charge. Owners may contact Cummins at 1-812-377-5000 or E-One at 1-352-861-3223. The safety recall began on October 10, 2011.

Hazard

THIS COULD RESULT IN ASPHYXIATION OR CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. THE HEAT BUILD UP FROM THE EXHAUST CAN ALSO RESULT IN A FIRE. IF BOTH CLAMPS FAIL, THERE IS A RISK IN SOME APPLICATIONS THAT THE DOC/DPF HOUSING MAY DETACH COMPLETELY, CREATING A ROAD HAZARD.

What should I do?

E-ONE IS WORKING WITH CUMMINS TO IDENTIFY AND NOTIFY OWNERS OF THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. REPAIRS WILL BE PERFORMED BY AUTHORIZED CUMMINS DEALERS FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 10, 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CUMMINS AT 1-812-377-5000 OR E-ONE AT 1-352-861-3223.
