Recall 03V-372: 1998 Nabi 40LFW
NORTH AMERICAN BUS INDUSTRIES, INC. recall for vehicle speed control, reported to NHTSA on Oct 6, 2003, covering about 80 vehicles.
The problem
On certain transit buses equipped with cummins electronic control modules on the l10g engines, the ECM does not have the ability to detect a throttle fail-safe engine shutdown command. This could result in an unanticipated, uncommanded open throttle condition without warning.
The risk
If this event occurs, the vehicle operator will not have control of the engine speed, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
The fix
Cummins will notify the customers and replace the ECM. Owners should contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or nabi at 256-832-4296.
Notes
Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
