Special Note
- The purpose of this campaign is to disable the fuel heater. If a plug is in place rather than a heater, either from completion of TRP 2129, action taken by following TSB190038, or being built with a plug, then no further action is needed at this time.
Verification
- Locate the Stage 1 fuel filter head on engine. The engine fuel heater is located on the top right side of the fuel filter head. See Figure 1 below.
Note: The location in the connector (3) of the red and white wires in Figure 1 above may differ slightly based on previous campaign work done to this engine.
- Check the fuel heater to see if there is damage (melting or leaking), similar to Figure 2.
-
- If engine fuel heater is not damaged or leaking fuel after engine shutdown, and the fuel filter module is not damaged, follow scenario 1.
- If engine fuel heater is damaged, or leaking fuel after engine shutdown, but fuel filter module is not damaged, follow instructions for scenario 2.

*** IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL***
NHTSA Recall No. 20E-018
Cummins Campaign #C2302
Second Notice
November 30, 2020
Dear Cummins Customer:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
Cummins Inc. has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain B6.7 diesel engines that were manufactured between December 16, 2015 and March 24, 2020 and equipped with fuel module option FS90301 or FS90453.
This notice applies to your engine(s) listed on the enclosed Engine/Vehicle list.
If your engine was manufactured between December 16, 2015 and February 25, 2019, you received a similar notice regarding NHTSA Recall No. 19E-020 (Cummins Safety Campaign #C2127) pertaining to your engine(s). This recall notice supersedes the prior recall notice; you must have the remedy described in this recall performed on your engine, even if your engine was remedied under the prior recall.
If your engine was manufactured between February 26, 2019 and November 5, 2019, your engine may have had repairs done according to Cummins Campaign #C2128 or ATC2278. This recall notice supersedes actions under those field actions; you must have the remedy described in this recall performed on your engine, even if your engine was remedied under those actions.
If your engine was manufactured between November 6, 2019 and March 24, 2020, this is a new action.
WHY IS A RECALL BEING CONDUCTED?
Fuel module options FS90301 and FS90453 contain an electric fuel heater. Internal electrical heating within the fuel heater may create sufficient heat inside the fuel heater to cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also cause an engine stall. A fire, if undetected and uncontained, presents an increased risk of personal injury. An unexpected engine stall may increase the risk of a crash. If this condition exists, melting of the fuel heater or fuel seepage from around the fuel heater may be visible during a service event, smoke may precede or accompany a fire, or the engine may become increasingly difficult to start.
WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT THE PROBLEM?
Cummins has released field Safety Campaign #C2302 “B6.7 Engine-Mounted Fuel Heater Safety Campaign” to correct this condition. This campaign is currently available at Cummins Distributors and Cummins-authorized Warranty Dealers. The remedy will consist of the following: (1) disabling the fuel heater by either installing a plug in place of the fuel heater or otherwise rendering the fuel heater inoperable and (2) removing the fuse supplying electrical power to the fuel heater and installing a cover over the wire harness connector. The repair will be completed free of charge (parts and labor) and most applications will require approximately 30 minutes to complete.
This safety recall addresses the potential safety defect for your engine. However, this repair will disable the fuel heater. Cummins is currently working to determine an appropriate cold weather starting aid for customers that require it. Cummins Distributors and Dealers will be notified when a separate field action is available.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
Contact the nearest Cummins Distributor or authorized Warranty Dealer to arrange to have this campaign performed on your engine. The distributor or dealer will work with you to schedule the best date to complete this repair.
In the meantime, to mitigate the safety risk, Cummins advises you to remove the fuel heater fuse as shown in Figures 1, 2 or 3 below (based on the vehicle).
Federal law requires vehicle lessors receiving this recall notice to forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within ten (10) days. Also, it is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new vehicle or equipment covered by this recall notice under a sale or lease until the defect has been remedied.
If you previously paid to have this recall performed on your vehicle, you may be eligible for reimbursement. Please contact Cummins Care at the number below for more information.
WHO SHOULD YOU CONTACT IF YOU HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS?
If you have questions or concerns about this recall, please contact your local Cummins Distributor or authorized warranty dealer. You may also contact Cummins Care at 1-800CUMMINS (1-800-286-6467) or visit our website at care.cummins.com.

*** IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL ***
NHTSA Recall No. 20E-018
April 6, 2020
Dear Cummins OEM Customer:
We are writing to inform you that Cummins Inc. has determined that a safety-related defect exists in certain B6.7 engines that were manufactured between December 16, 2015 and March 24, 2020. Cummins has initiated a recall of the subject engines. Our records indicate that some of these engines have been shipped to you.
A copy of Cummins’ initial Part 573 Defect Notification report is enclosed. This notification was submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on March 31, 2020. As more fully described in the Defect Notification, excessive electrical heating within the fuel heater on the engine may create sufficient heat inside the fuel heater to cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also cause an engine stall.
Enclosed is a list of Engine Serial Numbers for affected engines that our records indicate were shipped to your plants. For engines installed in vehicles that have left your control, we encourage you to make a safety defect determination in accordance with 49 USC 30118 et seq. and, as appropriate, to submit a Defect Notification to NHTSA in accordance with 49 CFR Part 573. Cummins will conduct the recall, including notifying owners pursuant to 49 CFR Part 577, performing the remedy, and submitting quarterly status reports to NHTSA. Cummins is requesting that you provide the associated vehicle model identification, VINs and owner contact information to facilitate owner notification. Please work with your Cummins account team leader to ensure that the requested information is provided to Cummins as soon as possible.
For engines/vehicles that are still in your inventory, please contact the Customer Quality Assurance representative at the Rocky Mount Engine Plant to arrange for repairs. Please note that Federal law prohibits delivery of these engines, or vehicles equipped with these engines, under a sale or lease until this condition has been remedied.
Cummins is working to determine the field remedy and will communicate this as soon as it is available.
Cummins apologizes for this inconvenience, but we are initiating this action in the interest of our customers’ safety and satisfaction with our products. Thank you for your assistance.
Please confirm receipt of this communication.
Sincerely,
Enclosures:
