Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Carrying an NHTSA advisoryCampaigns where NHTSA told owners not to drive the vehicle, or to park it outside, until the repair is done.

Open investigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

Recall campaigns

3 campaigns cover this model year — what the defect is, what it could cause, and what the remedy is

15V296000

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

May 19, 2015
1,809 units potentially affected
The defect: NABI Bus, LLC (NABI) is recalling certain model year 2007-2015 LFW and BRT transit buses and 2007-2013 CLFW transit buses. Excessive engine crankcase pressures may cause the 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.
The risk: If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.
The remedy: Cummins will work with NABI to notify owners, and dealers will secure the ends of the 90-degree elbow. In addition, the electronic control module (ECM) will be reprogrammed with software that can adjust the engine output under misfire conditions to limit crankcase pressures. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on June 12, 2015. Owners may contact NABI customer service at 1-256-241-1298. NABI's number for this recall is 20152.

14V508000

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL

Aug 19, 2014
35 units potentially affected
The defect: NABI Bus, LLC (NABI) is recalling certain model year 2014 LFW and BRT transit buses manufactured May 2, 2014, to August 8, 2014. 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 remedy: NABI will work with Cummins to notify owners, and Cummins service centers will install a new fuel filter, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact NABI customer service at 1-256-831-4296 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-223-4583. NABI's number for this recall is 20144.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

Feb 25, 2014
269 units potentially affected
The defect: NABI Bus, LLC (NABI) is recalling certain 2013-2014 LFW and BRT city transit buses manufactured January 1, 2013, through February 20, 2014, and equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G. Condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
The risk: The improper operation of the sensor could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe.
The remedy: Cummins Inc. and Cummins Wesport Inc. will work with NABI and notify owners, and dealers will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2014. Customers can contact NABI at 1-256-831-4926 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357. NABI's recall number for this campaign is 20141.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
