The short answer
NHTSA received WESTPORT FUEL SYSTEMS INC’s report on Apr 23, 2010. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
THIS COULD RESULT IN A SUDDEN LEAK OF HIGH PRESSURE GAS WITHIN THE TANK SHROUD AND A SLOWER LEAK OF TANK PRESSURE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR VEHICLE OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WESTPORT IS RECALLING CERTAIN ISX G CLASS 8 VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS PUMPS.
THE VENT HOLE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PUMP PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE MAY HAVE BEEN COVERED BY A WELDING PROCESS, DURING THE MANUFACTURE OF THE PUMP.
THIS CAN RENDER THE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE INEFFECTIVE, RESULTING IN THE POSSIBLE BUILD UP OF GAS IN THE PUMP IF THE MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE IS CLOSED.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
