What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Rosenbauer Motors (Rosenbauer) is recalling one model year 2017 Commander emergency vehicle equipped with a Cummins X15 diesel engine. This engine has a fuel pump whose drive gear may slip on its drive shaft, resulting in a loss of fuel pump function.

The risk

Failure of the fuel pump will result in a sudden engine stall with no warning, and with no ability to restart, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Rosenbauer has notified the owner and the vehicle has been repaired, therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact Rosenbauer customer service at 1-651-462-1000.

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.
