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.
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.
