2023 Gillig Low Floor: Fuel System, Diesel recall
NHTSA campaign 24V390000 · 54 units potentially affected · filed Jun 3, 2024
What's wrong
Gillig, LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2023 Low Floor buses equipped with Cummins L9 diesel engines with part number D563027BX03. Insufficient crimping may allow the remote fuel filter hoses to disconnect and leak, decreasing fuel supply to the engine.
Why it matters
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. Additionally, a lack of fuel can cause an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Cummins will replace the remote fuel filter hoses. Owner notification letters were mailed June 21, 2024. Owners may contact Gillig customer service at 1-510-264-5073 or 1-800-735-1500.
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.
