Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
E-One is recalling certain 2008 through 2011 Cyclone II, Typhoon, and Quest vehicles manufactured between May 1, 2008, and November 28, 2011, that are equipped with Meritor Wabco electronic stability control (ESC) modules. Under certain road and driving conditions, the ESC system may incorrectly calculate the vehicle's slip angle due to vehicle body roll and road inclination characteristics. This can cause the ESC to mistakenly perceive an over steering situation and apply the outer wheel brake on the front axle. If the driver is slow to react during this ESC intervention, the vehicle may deviate from its intended line of travel, increasing the risk of a crash.
E-One will notify owners and is working with Meritor Wabco to replace the control module at no charge. The recall began on December 16, 2011. Affected consumers should contact E-One Customer Service at 1-800-627-5050 or Meritor On Track Customer Service at 1-866-668-7221.
