What is wrong
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.
What can happen
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
Recall repairs are free of charge.
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.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
