Defect SummaryOn certain heavy duty class 8 trucks built with cummins ism c876 engines, the electronic control module fails to recognize inputs of the vehicle electronic control unit or from a driver actuated dash switch thereby increasing the risk of unintended (or unexpected) elevated exhaust temperatures.
Consequence SummaryWhile this condition does not involve a risk of fire in the vehicle itself, it could present a fire hazard in a situation where the vehicle's exhaust is in close proximity to materials or substances that can melt, burn, or explode.
Corrective SummaryCummins, in conjunction with international, will conduct the remedy campaign. cummins will install new ecm software. owners can contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or international at 1-800-448-7825.
