2015 E-One Typhoon recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling one model year 2015 Typhoon emergency vehicle manufactured March 16, 2015, to October 30, 2015, equipped with a Class 1 Ultraview Touchscreen manufactured by Hale Products. The touchscreen may experience false switch activations that can happen without the operator's knowledge causing accessories to turn on or off.
💥 The risk
Uintended turning on or off of any or multiple accessories such as emergency beacons or automatic snow chains can increase the risk of a crash.

E-One has notified the owner and updated touchscreen software has been installed, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2016. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-904-237-1122.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
