Campaign Details

Component: STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY

Defect Description

E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2015 Cyclone II and Quest II emergency vehicles, equipped with certain Spicer D-Series and E-Series steer axles. The castellated nut on the steer axles may not be properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen.

Consequence / Hazard

If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash.

Proposed Solution

E-One will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the torque of the castellated nut and tie rod, tightening it as necessary. If the tie rod stud and knuckle on units cannot be sufficiently torqued, the dealer will replace the knuckle and tie rod end assembly, free of charge. The recall began on October 5, 2017. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-800-627-5050.
