Campaign #C2532 March 11, 2022 Dear Cummins
Customer: This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Cummins
Inc. has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain Cummins
X12 Engines that were manufactured between April 26, 2016 and November 1, 2021 and for installation in mixer, truck, coach, emergency vehicle, refuse truck, recreational vehicle and crane applications. This notice applies to the engines(s)/vehicles(s) listed on the enclosed table. You previously received a letter informing you of this recall and advising you that Cummins
was developing a remedy. A remedy is now available for your engine/vehicle. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders 4, 5 and 6 may be susceptible to cracking, resulting in a high pressure fuel leak. A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of a fire. WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT THE PROBLEM? Cummins
has released field Safety Campaign #C2532, X12 CM2350 X119B and X12 CM2450 X137B Fuel Injector Supply Line Safety Campaign to correct this condition by replacing the fuel tubes with new fuel tubes and installing vibration isolators for cylinders 4,5 and 6. This campaign is currently available at Cummins
Distributors and authorized Warranty dealers. The repair will be completed free of charge and most applications will require approximately 2 hours to complete. WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? Contact the nearest Cummins
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 the repair. In the meantime, Cummins
advises you to periodically check the injector fuel tubes for signs of leaking and to seek repairs if leaks are identified. If a leak occurs, the operator may smell diesel fuel or observe a mist. C Cummins

Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : NR Involved Components : Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-095 Page 2 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Component Name 1 : Injector Fuel Supply Tube Component Description : Fuel tube between fuel rail and fuel injector Component Part Number : 5536516 Component Name 2 : Injector Fuel Supply Tube Component Description : Fuel tube between fuel rail and fuel injector Component Part Number : 5486389 Component Name 3 : Injector Fuel Supply Tube Component Description : Fuel tube between fuel rail and fuel injector Component Part Number : 3695190 Supplier Identification : Component Manufacturer Name : Usui International
Corporation Address : 44780 Helm Street Plymouth
Michigan 48170 Country : United States Chronology : 19Apr2021: Cummins
received a Technical Service Request for a leaking fuel tube on an X12 engine. 19Apr-23Jul2021: Cummins
received additional reports of leaking fuel tubes on X12 engines and escalated the issue for further investigation. 23Jul2021: Cummins
initiated a Product Problem Solving (PPS) project to investigate the cause of the fuel tube leaks. Aug-Oct2021: Cummins
continued to investigate this issue, including obtaining and analyzing parts from the field, conducting testing to understand the cause of the failures and evaluating potential corrective action. 19Oct2021: Cummins
investigated a September 2021 fire on a vehicle equipped with an X12 engine. 25Oct2021: Cummins
identified a leak of the #5 cylinder fuel tube as the cause of the fire. 28Oct2021: Cummins
completed a Product Safety Hazard Analysis. 1Nov-23Nov2021: Cummins
escalated the issue through its Product Safety Defect Board process. 23Nov2021: Based upon results of the investigation, the Cummins
Product Safety Defect Board decided to conduct a safety campaign to address this condition. 7Dec2021: Cummins
notified HME of safety campaign. Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-095 Page 3 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Dec2021: HME worked with Cummins
to verify current inventory of uninstalled engines and which needed to be remedied. DEC2021: Affected uninstalled engines are repaired by Cummins
. Dec2021: HME provides owner names and addresses for notification letters, which Cummins
will send. Jan-Feb2022: HME transitions responsibility for NHSTA related items and training starts. Feb2022: HME files on NHSTA website. Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : The subject fuel tubes for cylinders 4,5 and 6 (the rear half of the engine) will be replaced with new fuel tubes (having the same part number as the recalled components) and vibration isolators will be added to the fuel tubes. A recall-specific reimbursement plan will be provided on the Recall Portal for those units not covered by the manufacturer’s limited warranty. Cummins
will be handling all quarterly reporting for this Recall. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : The replacement fuel tubes will also have vibration isolators. The fuel tube and vibration isolator combination will have a new part number. Identify How/When Recall Condition was Corrected in Production : The injector alignment to the cylinder head was improved by implementing an improved alignment fixture during engine assembly and vibration isolators were added to the fuel tubes during the engine assembly on November 2, 2021. Recall Schedule : Description of Recall Schedule : Cummins
will conduct the recall and send letters to owners (no notifications to be sent to dealers). Planned Dealer Notification Date : NR – NR Planned Owner Notification Date : MAR 11, 2022 – MAR 11, 2022 * NR – Not Reported
