What's wrong?
The fuel filter on 2014 Nabi Brt and Lfw transit buses cleans diesel fuel before it reaches the Cummins ISB or ISL engine. The recalled filter is the Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filter, part number FF63009. Its shell and nut plate have to stay locked together so fuel stays contained and flows steadily to the engine.
In affected buses, the filter shell can separate from the fuel filter nut plate. That separation interrupts the fuel supply. When a diesel engine loses fuel flow, it stalls, which means the bus loses engine power instead of continuing to run normally.
There is no warning sign before failure. A driver is not expected to get a gradual symptom before the engine stall described in recall 14V508.
Who's affected?
Covers both 2014 Nabi Brt and Lfw buses, with each model tied to the fuel system.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific bus is included.
What's the safety risk?
An unexpected engine stall can leave the driver without normal power at a critical moment and increase the risk of a crash. If the vehicle stalls or loses power, move it out of traffic when safe and arrange service. Repair will be free at any franchised Nabi dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2014 Nabi Brt or Lfw bus is included in this recall.
- Contact Nabi customer service at 1-256-831-4296 if you did not receive an owner notice, and reference recall number 14V508.
- Schedule the free Cummins fuel-filter replacement that fixes the Fleetguard filter shell separation linked to engine stall without warning.
- Bring any recall notice and service records to the Cummins service center.
- Keep drivers alert for sudden engine stall risk until the new fuel filter is installed.
What happens at the repair
Nabi is working with Cummins to notify owners. Once the repair is available, a Cummins service center will install a new fuel filter at no charge. The repair addresses Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters whose shell can separate from the fuel filter nut plate and lead to an engine stall. If your 2014 Brt or Lfw bus is included, ask Nabi or the service center to confirm the Cummins repair path and schedule the free fuel filter replacement.
