*** IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL***
NHTSA Recall No. 18E-112
CumminseBay Campaign #C2101 

 

February 1, 2019

 

Dear CumminseBay Customer:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.  CumminseBay Inc. has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain ISV5.0 diesel engines that were manufactured between October 6, 2015 and October 6, 2017.

This notice applies to your engine(s) listed on the enclosed Engine/Vehicle list.

 

WHY IS A RECALL BEING CONDUCTED? 

Certain ISV5.0 engines equipped with Option CP80009 installed in Blue Bird school buses may experience air compressor belt slippage resulting in decreased air compressor output. Air compressor belt slippage may impact vehicle air braking. If the condition progresses, and if audible and visible warnings are ignored, the vehicle will experience deterioration in air brake performance until, eventually, the parking brake is automatically applied, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, passengers being transferred from a disabled school bus may be at an increased risk of personal injury if the transfer occurs in a high traffic location.

 

WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT THE PROBLEM?

CumminseBay has released field Safety Campaign #C2102 โ€œISV5.0 Belt Slip Safety Campaign for Blue Birdโ€ to correct this condition by replacing the existing air compressor belt with a new shorter air compressor belt.  Repair parts are currently available at CumminseBay Distributors and authorized Warranty Dealers for all engines in the affected production period.  The repair will be completed free of charge and most applications will require approximately 1.5 hours to complete.

This safety recall addresses the potential safety defect for your engine. However, this repair will disable the rear air conditioner compressor. The front air conditioner compressor will not be affected. CumminseBay is currently developing a solution that will enable the rear air conditioner compressor and will notify you when this campaign is available.

 

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

This condition may result in low brake air pressure warnings (i.e. dashboard lamps and audible alarms). Pay close attention to any low brake air pressure warnings while driving or servicing your vehicle. If you observe any of these warnings, drive the vehicle to a safe location as soon as it is safe to do so.

Contact the nearest CumminseBay Distributor or authorized Warranty Dealer to arrange to have this campaign performed on your engine.  The distributor or dealer will work with you to schedule the best date to complete this repair.

Federal law requires vehicle lessors receiving this recall notice to forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within ten (10) days.  Also, it is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new vehicle or equipment covered by this recall notice under a sale or lease until the defect has been remedied.

If you previously paid to have this recall performed on your vehicle, you may be eligible for reimbursement.  Please contact CumminseBay Care at the number below for more information.

 

WHO SHOULD YOU CONTACT IF YOU HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS?

If you have questions or concerns about this recall, please contact your local CumminseBay Distributor or authorized warranty dealer.  You may also contact CumminseBay Care at 1-800CUMMINS (1-800-286-6467), or visit our website at care.cumminseBay.com.

Dear CumminseBay OEM Customer:

We are writing to inform you that CumminseBay Inc. has determined that a safety-related defect exists in certain ISV5.0 engines that were manufactured between March 16, 2015 and September 17, 2018.  CumminseBay has initiated a recall of the subject engines.  Our records indicate that some of these engines have been shipped to you.

A copy of CumminseBayโ€™ initial Part 573 Defect Notification report is enclosed notification.  This notification was submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (โ€œNHTSAโ€) on December 5, 2018.  As more fully described in the notification, certain ISV5.0 light duty diesel engines equipped with Option CP80007 installed in Tiffin MotorhomeseBay and with Option CP80009 installed in Blue Bird school buses may experience air compressor belt slippage resulting in decreased air compressor output. Air compressor belt slippage may impact vehicle air braking. If the condition progresses, and if audible and visible warnings are ignored, the vehicle will experience deterioration in air brake performance until, eventually, the parking brake is automatically applied, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, passengers being transferred from a disabled school bus may be at an increased risk of personal injury if the transfer occurs in a high traffic location.

Enclosed is a list of Engine Serial Numbers for affected engines that our records indicate were shipped to your plants.  For engines installed in vehicles that have left your control, we encourage you to make a safety defect determination in accordance with 49 USC 30118 et seq. and, as appropriate, to submit a Defect Notification to NHTSA in accordance with 49 CFR Part 573.  CumminseBay will conduct the recall, including notifying owners pursuant to 49 CFR Part 577, performing the remedy, and submitting quarterly status reports to NHTSA. CumminseBay is requesting that you provide the associated vehicle model identification, VINs and owner contact information to facilitate owner notification.  Please work with your CumminseBay account team leader to ensure that the requested information is provided to CumminseBay as soon as possible.

For engines/vehicles that are still in your inventory, please contact the Owner Quality Assurance representative at the Columbus Engine Plant to arrange for repairs.  Please note that Federal law prohibits delivery of these engines, or vehicles equipped with these engines, under a sale or lease until this condition has been remedied.

CumminseBay is working to determine the field remedy and will communicate this as soon as it is available.

CumminseBay apologizes for this inconvenience, but we are initiating this action in the interest of our customersโ€™ safety and satisfaction with our products.  Thank you for your assistance.

 

Please confirm receipt of this communication.

Sincerely,

Account Manager
