Nabi recall: Engine and engine cooling
What is wrong
NABI Bus, LLC (NABI) is recalling certain 2013-2014 LFW and BRT city transit buses manufactured January 1, 2013, through February 20, 2014, and equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G. Condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
What could happen
The improper operation of the sensor could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe.
The fix
Cummins Inc. and Cummins Wesport Inc. will work with NABI and notify owners, and dealers will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2014. Customers can contact NABI at 1-256-831-4926 or Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357. NABI's recall number for this campaign is 20141.
