Cummins recall: Engine
What is wrong
Cummins, Inc. (Cummins) is recalling certain X15 diesel engines, part number D103109BX03. The capscrews that attach the flywheel to the crankshaft may have been improperly torqued, allowing the flywheel to detach.
What could happen
A detached flywheel can cause loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, driveline pieces may be ejected from the engine compartment, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Cummins will notify owners, and dealers will properly torque the capscrews and inspect for possible damage and, if necessary, repair any damage found, free of charge. The recall began March 29, 2021. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467. Cummin's number for this recall is C2402.
