Recall 2018527

The issue

On certain trucks built with a Cummins X15 or ISX15 engine equipped with nylon fuel lines and a banjo bolt on the fuel pump, a blockage in the fuel cooling system may cause a fuel line to burst. This could result in a significant fuel leak onto the roadway, which would create a road hazard for other motorists. Additionally, this condition could also cause an engine stall without warning, without the ability to restart the engine. Both of these conditions may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Cummins-authorized dealers will replace the affected nylon line with a steel line.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions munis d'un moteur Cummins X15 ou ISX15 à canalisations d'alimentation en carburant en nylon et à boulon banjo sur la pompe à carburant, un blocage dans le circuit de refroidissement du carburant pourrait causer l'éclatement d'une canalisation de transport de carburant. Cela pourrait causer une fuite de carburant importante sur la route, ce qui créerait un danger routier pour les autres automobilistes. De plus, ce problème pourrait aussi faire caler le moteur subitement sans que l'on puisse le redémarrer. Ces deux problèmes pourraient augmenter les risques d'un accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels. Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires autorisés Cummins devront remplacer le filtre du circuit de refroidissement de la pompe à carburant.
