Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA 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.

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.

On Sunday, May 21, 2023 we were traveling e/b on Highway 40 in Albuquerque when an amber mil light and check engine light appeared on the dash followed with sluggish engine performance. We exited the highway (#175) and pulled over. SPN 94 FMI 17, SPN 157 FMI 18. After about 15 minutes and engine restart only the mil remained. We got back on the freeway and the event re-occurred. A mobile mechanic replaced the fuel filters and cleared the faults. We continued on. We exited the highway at Flying C Ranch (#234) and while exiting the event re-occurred. We spent the night in the parking lot and the following morning I called [XXX]. [XXX] told me that the codes were related to the fuel rails and that I needed to go to Cummins. I called Rocky Mountain Cummins and made a service appointment. Re-started the coach and only the mil remained. Upon traveling w/b 40, the event re-occurred and was able to make it to Clines Corner where we spent the night in their parking lot. Hoping to avoid a tow, the fuel filters were once again changed out. On Tuesday, May 23 we experienced a complete loss of power at the Wagon Wheel exit unable to make it off the Highway. We were towed to Rocky Mountain Cummins by [XXX] from Taverner's Tow. Rocky Mountain Cummins diagnosed the problem as a faulty fuel actuator and completed the repair on June 5. We left that afternoon and after passing mile marker #261, the same event re-occurred losing all engine power & no restart. We coasted to the shoulder where we remained during a rainstorm for 14 hours awaiting a tow. Rocky Mountain's "trouble shooter" diagnosed the problem as a "broken wire" near a connector and make the repair. On each of the events the same SPN & FMI fault codes. The following week I attended the [XXX] presentation at the [XXX] in Amana, Iowa. The [XXX] speaker said that an amber check engine light and mil light is not a cause for immediate concern and continued driving is fine until next fuel stop.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

MCD-009

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Stopped using the lights we had been using due to expense. Replaced with these, but these new lights have to be wired in instead of just clicking in. These are the instructions to wire in.

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.
