What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Xpeditor and 2020-2022 Legend vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders four, five, and six may fatigue and crack, which can result in a high pressure fuel leak.

The risk

A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Cummins will replace the fuel tubes, and install vibration isolators, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed January 28, 2022. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 11, 2022. Owners may contact Autocar customer service at 1-888-218-3611 or 1-877-976-3486. Autocar's number for this recall is ACX-2108 DC-2105.

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.nhtsa.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.
