Excessive engine crankcase pressures may cause the 90-degree elbow of the vent tube assembly to detach from the crankcase ventilation breather, possibly allowing engine oil to come into contact with hot surfaces.
New Flyer Industries Canada ULC (New Flyer) is recalling certain model year 2009 C35LF and L40LFR, model year 2009-2012 C35LFR, model year 2008-2013 C40LF and C40LFR, model year 2013 XN35, model year 2011-2013 XN40 and model year 2012-2013 XN60 transit buses equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G engines. In the affected vehicles, condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
New Flyer Industries is recalling certain model year 2012 XN40 transit buses manufactured October 30, 2012, through November 27, 2012, and equipped with certain Sportworks Northwest Apex 3 bicycle racks. In the affected racks, cracks may develop where the latch tube is welded to the pivot tabs connected to the frame. Over time, the cracks may lead to separation of the latch tube and latch handle.
