2016 Oshkosh S-Series Recall 16V410: ECM Stall Defect

Recall 16V410 affects 6 2016 Oshkosh S-Series concrete mixers for an ECM short that stalls the engine. Repair is free at any franchised Oshkosh dealer.

Oshkosh is recalling 6 2016 S-Series front discharge concrete mixers because certain Cummins engine control modules can short internally, blow a fuse, and stall the engine without restart. An engine stall raises crash risk, and Oshkosh dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?

The engine control module on a 2016 Oshkosh S-Series concrete mixer is the electronic controller for the Cummins diesel engine. It reads engine inputs and sends commands that keep fuel delivery, electrical control, and engine operation coordinated. The engine depends on that module and its power supply circuit staying dry and intact.

On the affected mixers, water entered certain ECM connector ports during the engine wash process before painting. The port was supposed to be protected by a masking cap, but defective caps let wash water reach the connector area. Water or residue on the printed circuit board can create an internal electrical short. That short can blow a fuse in the ECM power supply circuit, which can stall the engine and prevent it from restarting.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner or operator would first notice the problem when the engine stalls and will not restart.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific truck.

What's the safety risk?

An engine stall can leave the vehicle without propulsion in traffic and increase the risk of a crash. The filing does not list a warning sign before the stall, so schedule the ECM replacement soon. Repair is free at any franchised Oshkosh dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2016 Oshkosh S-Series is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Oshkosh dealer to schedule the free ECM replacement that fixes the engine-control-module short that can stall the engine and prevent restart.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Oshkosh has mailed one. If not, reference recall number 16V410 when you call.
  4. Ask Oshkosh customer service at 1-888-686-7278 if you need help finding the correct dealer contact.
  5. Drive cautiously until the repair is complete, and pull over safely if the engine stalls.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, an Oshkosh technician replaces the existing engine control module with a new ECM. That module controls engine operation, and the recall remedy is a replacement unit rather than a software update. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Oshkosh has a general reimbursement plan on file, so owners who already paid for this ECM replacement can ask Oshkosh customer service how to submit documented expenses.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 16V410?
