CUMMINS INC. ISSUED A FIELD ACTION, ATC1747 TO PREVENT PRESSURIZED ENGINE FUEL LEAKS. WE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CUMMINS DATED JULY 28 2016 STRONGLY ENCOURAGING CUMMINS COMPLIMENTARY INSTALLATION OF FUEL SUPPLY LINE ISOLATORS ON #1 AND #6 FUEL INJECTORS. CUMMINS IS NOW SAYING THAT WE DIDN'T ACT ON THE OFFER QUICKLY ENOUGH AND THEY'VE RETRACTED THEIR OFFER TO INSTALL THE FUEL SUPPLY LINE ISOLATORS AT NO CHARGE. OUR RV ENGINE IS STILL UNDER CUMMINS FACTORY WARRANTY WITH ONLY 5,000 MILES, AND WE HAVE ALREADY HAD A SERIOUS PRESSURIZED FUEL SYSTEM LEAK AT THE FUEL INJECTORS, THAT WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. WE WANT CUMMINS TO INSTALL THE FUEL SUPPLY LINE ISOLATORS TO PREVENT A FIRE IN OUR RV ENGINE, WHILE THE ENGINE IS UNDER WARRANTY.
Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc. (Tiffin) is recalling certain 2009-2018 Allegro and Allegro RED, Bus and Phaeton vehicles, 2009-2010 Bay vehicles, 2011-2018 Breeze vehicles, and 2009-2015, and 2017-2018 Zephyr vehicles. These motorhomes are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.

Consequence & remedy
