Crane Carrier Company recall 14V-124 covers 561 Crane vehicles for a engine and engine cooling: engine problem, reported to NHTSA on March 14, 2014.
Source: NHTSA recall 14V124000 and manufacturer quarterly reports. Started by the manufacturer.
The problem
Crane Carrier Company (Crane) is recalling certain model year 2008-2014 LET2, COE, LDT2, and LE2 refuse vehicles manufactured April 16, 2008, through February 28, 2014, and equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G engines. 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 fix
Cummins Inc. and Cummins Wesport Inc. will notify owners, and authorized Cummins service facilities will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Customers may contact contact Crane at 1-918-832-7305 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357.
