DEFECT #1 - STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS

Posted on: 2016-11-30
Description
Cummins inc.  (cummins) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 cummins power generation generator sets, models c60d6r, c150d2re, c100d6r, c200d6r, c200d2re, c275d2re, and c300d6r, manufactured december 18, 2015, to october 3, 2016.  The affected generator sets have been mounted on trailers, and due to the possibility that the door hinges may fail, the generator set doors may detach while the trailer is being moved.

Consequence
If the door detaches, it can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Cummins will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hinges, free of charge.  The recall began on december 16, 2016.  Owners may contact cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.

Description
Cummins inc.  (cummins) is recalling certain 2015-2018 power generation trailers, models c60d6r, c150d6r, c80d6r, c100d6r, c200d6r, c300d6r, c150d2r3 and c200d2re, 2016-2018 c275d2re and 2018 c70d2re and c100d2re.  These generator sets may have incorrectly wired remote emergency stop and remote start connections causing the remote stop to not function and shut down the generator as intended.

Corrective Action
Cummins will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the remote e-stop function and, if necessary, repair or replace the remote e-stop/remote start switch panel, free of charge.  The recall is expected to begin september 2018.  Owners may contact cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467.
