Diamler Trucks has announced that they are recalling certain models of 2009 heavy trucks manufactured between May 5, 2008 and January 7, 2009, equipped with DD15 engines and with Bosch high pressure fuel pumps. They stated that the fasteners on these fuel pumps could be under torqued allowing the O ring between the pump housing and the barrel to protrude and leak.
If a diesel fuel leak continues undetected, under certain driving conditions, fuel may ignite on a hot engine surface and/or fuel may spill on the road increasing the risk of a crash. Diamler Trucks will notify owners and the remedy will be preformed by Detroit Diesel Corporation authorized repair facilities and direct warranty customers. The safety recall is expected to begin on or about December 4, 2009. Owners may contact Diamler Trucks at 1-800-547-0712.
