What's wrong?
The exhaust system on 2019-2021 E-One Typhoon N and Cyclone Ii emergency vehicles carries hot engine gases up and out through a vertical stack. The vertical exhaust vent plate and the cover above that stack are supposed to help separate that heat from wiring, tanks, and other body components around the exhaust cavity.
On affected vehicles, the exhaust stack is enclosed in the body without enough ventilation. During heavy engine use, heat stays trapped in that cavity instead of moving away from nearby parts. That heat buildup can soften plastic components and damage items close to the exhaust assembly. E-One's repair adds a vented opening in the diamond plate cavity cover so heat has a path out.
Warning signs include melted wire loom, discoloration on plastic tanks, or distorted plastic tanks near the exhaust area. If you see those signs, tell the E-One dealer or service center when you schedule inspection or recall work.
Who's affected?
Both model lines use the same vertical exhaust vent plate, with affected scope spread across the 2019, 2020, and 2021 model years.

- Check your VIN to confirm your 2019-2021 E-One Typhoon N or Cyclone Ii is included in this recall.

What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an E-One technician adds an opening to the body top and installs a protective grate so exhaust heat has a protected path out of the vehicle body. The recall repair is free, and E-One provides the needed components at no charge. E-One also compensates the dealer or owner for installing the new components. If you already paid for this recall installation, contact E-One customer service at 1-352-237-1122 and ask how to submit your installation documentation.
