Spartan recall: Fuel system, diesel
What is wrong
Shyft Group (Shyft Group) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Spartan RV Chassis K3 vehicles. The fuel tubes between the fuel rail and the injectors for cylinders four, five, and six may fatigue and crack, which can result in a high pressure fuel leak.
What could happen
A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
The fix
On engines with 75 miles or less, dealers will install vibration isolators to the fuel tubes. Engines with more than 75 miles will receive new fuel tubes with vibration isolators. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 22, 2021.
