Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Daimler Trucks North America is recalling certain model year 2007-2016 Freightliner 114SD and M2 Business Class trucks, 2008-2009 Sterling LT8500 trucks, and Thomas Built Bus Saf-T-Liner HDX transit buses equipped with Cummins Westport ISL G engines. The problem occurs when excessive engine crankcase pressures cause the 90-degree elbow of the vent tube assembly to detach from the crankcase ventilation breather, which may allow engine oil to contact hot surfaces and create a fire risk.
To remedy the issue, Cummins will notify owners on behalf of DTNA, and dealers will secure the ends of the 90-degree elbow and reprogram the electronic control module with software designed to adjust engine output under misfire conditions and limit crankcase pressures. All repairs will be performed at no charge. Affected owners should contact DTNA customer service at 1-800-745-8000 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357, referencing recall number FL-681.
