Defect description
Kalmar Solutions, LLC (Kalmar) is recalling certain model year 2010, 2012, and 2013 Ottawa terminal tractors manufactured May 2010 through August 2013, and equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G engines. Condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
Safety consequence
The improper operation of the sensor 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.
Manufacturer remedy
Cummins Inc. and Cummins Wesport Inc. will notify owners, and authorized Cummins service facilities will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The recall began on March 18, 2014. Customers may contact Kalmar at 1-785-229-6341 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357.
