Cummins L9N: Engine recall

What's wrong

Cummins, Inc. (Cummins) is recalling certain L9N Natural Gas Engines, part number D883007BX03. The rear lifting bracket that attaches to the engine cylinder head may be insufficiently secured, which can allow it to detach.

Why it matters

A rear lifting bracket that detaches while the engine is being lifted can result in the engine falling or swinging, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and replace the flanged stud in the rear lifting bracket, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 9, 2023. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467. Cummins number for this recall is c2735.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
