Recall 14V566 affects 6,759 2015 Fccc vehicles for fuel filter shell separation that can stall the engine. Repair is free at any franchised Fccc dealer.
Fccc is recalling 6,759 2015 MT45, MT55, and other vehicles because some Cummins ISB or ISL engines have Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters that can separate from the fuel filter nut plate. An engine stall with no warning increases crash risk, and Fccc dealers will replace the fuel filter free of charge.

What's wrong?
The fuel filter on the Cummins ISB or ISL diesel engine cleans diesel fuel before it reaches the engine. In the 2015 Fccc vehicles covered by this recall, the filter is a Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filter, part number FF63009. Its job is to keep debris out of the fuel system while holding steady pressure as the engine runs.
The problem is in the way the filter shell attaches to the fuel filter nut plate. On the recalled filters, the shell can separate from that plate. Once that happens, the engine loses the fuel supply it needs to keep running. The result is an engine stall while the vehicle is in use.
There is no warning sign before failure. The recall describes an engine stall without warning, so an owner does not get a dash light, noise, or drivability symptom to rely on before the filter separates.
