NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published
The defect
Motor Coach Industries, Inc. (MCI) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 D4000 motorcoaches manufactured March 2011 through July 2012 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
MCI will notify owners, and authorized Cummins service facilities will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The recallbegan on April 16, 2014. Customers may contact MCI at 1-847-285-2090 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357. MCI's number associated with this campaign is 405.
Notes
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.
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.
