The short answer

NHTSA received Cummins Inc.’s report on Aug 10, 2018. 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?

If the fuel line bursts, a significant amount of fuel may leak onto the road resulting in a roadway hazard for other motorists. The engine may also stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

Cummins Inc.

(Cummins) is recalling certain ISX15 diesel engines, part number D103012BX03, and X15 diesel engines, part number D103016BX03.

These engines have nylon fuel lines and were built with a banjo bolt containing an integrated single screen filter on the fuel pump.

The fuel pump cooling circuit screens may become restricted by debris from filtration material causing the fuel line to burst when the vehicle is operated under certain driving conditions, such as on a long down-hill grade.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
