Recall 14V519000 · manufacturer campaign R14-018
Fuel System, Diesel — New Flyer · reported 28 Aug 2014 · 39 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
New Flyer Industries Ltd. (New Flyer) is recalling certain model year 2014 MD30, XD40, XD60, XDE40, and XDE60 transit buses. The Cummins ISB or ISL engines in these vehicles may have been equipped with Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters, part number FF63009, whose filter shell may separate from the fuel filter nut plate causing the engine to stall without warning.
The risk
If the engine stalls unexpectedly there is an increased risk of a crash.
The fix
New Flyer will notify owners, and Cummins dealers will replace the fuel filter with a new one, free of charge. The recall began in August 2014. Owners may contact New Flyer customer service at 1-204-934-4876 or Cummins customer service at 1-812-377-3713. New Flyer's number for this recall is R14-018.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
