07- Electrical#2019517
112 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the starter lock-out relay could be damaged over time, causing it to fail. If this happens, it will not be possible to start the engine. Note: A possible symptom of a damaged starter lock-out relay is a truck that requires multiple attempts to start. Safety Risk: An emergency vehicle with an engine that cannot be started could increase the risk of injury in an emergency situation. Corrective Actions: E-One will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a service center to install a relay and diode kit.
- Electrical#2019023
4 units affected
Issue: On certain aerial and pumper trucks, an electrical relay for the heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system could overheat and melt. A failing relay could have visible cracks and may produce a burning smell. Safety Risk: An overheated relay could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be provided with a new relay assembly and instructions on how to replace the existing one.
- Wheels#2018206
1 units affected
On certain vehicles, a manufacturing problem could lead to the development of a fatigue crack in the front spindles. This could cause a spindle failure and result in the possible separation of a wheel from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the defective front spindles.
- Electrical#2018044
58 units affected
Certain vehicles equipped with a Cummins ISL, L9, ISX15 or X15 engines, are fitted with a starter lock-out relay which could fail over time due to high voltage current from the starter solenoid during start up. In an emergency situation the vehicle would not be able to start, which could increase the risk of injury during firefighting operations. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the starter lock-out relay. Additionally a diode will be added to the starter solenoid circuit to improve longevity of the lock-out relay.
- Accessories#2017590
19 units affected
On certain fire trucks, the retaining ring(s) in the relief valve assembly may not have been made using high grade stainless steel, causing it to deteriorate over time due to frequent exposure to water. If the retaining ring fails, the relief valve may break down and prevent the fire pump from building adequate pressure, which would increase the risk of injury during firefighting operations. Correction: Dealers or certified technicians will inspect and replace the retaining ring(s) as necessary.
- Suspension#2017213
3 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with Reyco independent front suspension (IFS), the suspension system may contain loose ball joints. If these are not detected through regular servicing, they may separate, causing suspension failure. This could affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Owners will be instructed the have the suspension inspected by an E-One certified dealer or technician. Loose ball joints will be replaced.
- Suspension#2016578
3 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with jacklegs and FIREMAAX suspension air bags, the air bags could lose pressure and fail over time. Suspension air bag failure could affect vehicle stability which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a pressure protection valve on the exhaust port of the height control valve.
