TheWoWDBAm I missing something here? This event seems impossible to solo on a non-tank or no healing class. Even when I jump into the vehicle, it dies before I kill the pylon and I get swarmed by a ton of mobs. Please help.

Adds spawn in waves, presumably tied to percentage of the Swarm Caller's health. It's hard on a character that's not well-equipped, though, I'll give you that. Even a pet can die quickly, leaving a Hunter or Warlock without protection.
