Recalls for 2015 Crane Ldt2

DEFECT #1 - ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

Posted on: 2015-05-27
Description
Crane carrier company (crane carrier) is recalling certain model year 2008-2015 coe, ldt2, and let2 trucks manufactured february 25, 2008, to may 20, 2015, and equipped with certain cummins westport isl g engines.  Excessive engine crankcase pressures may cause the 90-degree elbow of the vent tube assembly to detach from the crankcase ventilation breather, possibly allowing engine oil to come into contact with hot surfaces.

Consequence
If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.

Corrective Action
Cummins will notify owners on behalf of crane carrier, and dealers will secure the ends of the 90-degree elbow.  In addition, the electronic control module (ecm) will be reprogrammed with software that can adjust the engine output under misfire conditions to limit crankcase pressures.  These repairs will be performed free of charge.  The recall began on june 12, 2015.  Owners may contact crane carrier customer service at 1-918-836-1651 or cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.
