Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Daimler Trucks North America is recalling certain 2011 through 2013 Thomas Built non-school buses with Cummins ISB6.7 diesel engines manufactured between March 2010 and July 2012. These vehicles contain a fan pulley (part number 3914462) that can fatigue and fail over time. If the pulley fails, the fan belt may disengage from the water pump, causing the cooling system to overheat and potentially disabling the bus. If the bus is occupied when this occurs, occupants would need to exit the vehicle and transfer to another vehicle, creating a risk of injury.
Cummins will notify owners of the recall and perform repairs at authorized Cummins service facilities at no charge. The remedy involves installing a new fan drive pulley. The recall began on January 4, 2013. Affected owners should contact Cummins at 1-812-377-5000 or DTNA at 1-800-547-0712.
