E-One Incorporated: Equipment
E-One Incorporated reported this defect to federal regulators on Sep 10, 2019 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 1. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling one 2018 Typhoon emergency vehicle equipped with a Hale SmartFoam 6.5 foam pump system with a 12 volt power supply. The foam pump system can overheat and fail, causing fire fighting foam chemical to be unavailable to fight a fire.
The risk
If the fire fighting foam chemical injection is unavailable, it can impact the fire fighting and/or vapor mitigation efforts, which increases the risk of injury to bystanders and emergency personnel.
The remedy
E-One will notify owners, and a Hale dealer will replace the SmartFoam 6.5 12 volt system with SmartFoam 6.5 24 volt system and a voltage converter, free of charge. The recall began October 15, 2019. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612 or Hale at 1-800-533-3569.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 19V649000.
