Crane Refuse Vehicles Recalled for Intake Manifold Freeze Risk

Plain-English summary

Crane Carrier Company is recalling certain model year 2008-2014 LET2, COE, LDT2, and LE2 refuse vehicles manufactured between April 16, 2008, and February 28, 2014. These vehicles are equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G engines. The recall affects 561 vehicles.

The defect involves condensation in the intake manifold that may freeze during cold weather conditions. This freezing can interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor. Improper sensor operation 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.

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 Crane at 1-918-832-7305 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357.
