Crane Recalls 2013 LDT2 and LET2 Vehicles Due to Fuel Filter Defect

Crane is recalling 2013 LDT2 and LET2 vehicles because a fuel filter defect may cause the engine to stall unexpectedly, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (fuel filter separation) that causes the engine to stall without warning, explicitly increasing the risk of a crash. This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'structural vehicle defect' or 'significant injury/property-damage reports' (implied by crash risk), warranting a score of 4.

Plain-English summary

Crane Carrier Company is recalling certain model year 2013 LDT2 and LET2 vehicles manufactured between June 30, 2014, and July 31, 2014. The recall involves 11 vehicles equipped with Cummins ISB or ISL engines that may have Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters (part number FF63009).

The defect involves the fuel filter shell potentially separating from the fuel filter nut plate. This separation can cause the engine to stall without warning. If the engine stalls unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of a crash.

Cummins will notify owners on behalf of Crane. Cummins service centers will replace the fuel filter with a non-defective one free of charge. The recall began on September 29, 2014. Owners may contact Crane customer service at 1-918-836-1651 or Cummins at 1-800-223-4583 (recall number C1545). Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
