Cummins Engine Failure Canadian Class Action

+ - Documents (1)

CONSUMER LAW GROUP is investigating a Canada-wide class action lawsuit against Cummins, PACCAR, Kenworth and Peterbilt on behalf of individuals who have purchased and/or leased a Peterbilt and/or Kenworth truck and/or heavy-duty vehicle powered by a 2010 ISX15 engine.

The class action alleges that Cummins and PACCAR failed to disclose, despite longstanding knowledge, that the engines and the exhaust after-treatment system in the vehicles are defective and predisposed to constant failure even after repeated warranty repairs, including, but not limited to engine derating, shutdown, after-treatment regeneration devices plugging, failing and/or clogging, as well as other failures that prevented the engines from properly functioning. To make matters worse, the exhaust after-treatment system includes an electronic on-board diagnostic system to monitor and control all aspects of the emissions and performance of the engines, but does not disclose to drivers what the problems are, which forces people to bring their vehicles to the defendants’ authorized service providers for service.

For the model years 2007 through 2009, the PACCAR vehicles equipped with Cummins ISX15 engines had significant problems with exhaust gas recirculation (“EGR”), the EGR valves, diesel particulate filter (“DPF”) systems and other sensors, and other piping and containment components for the engine aftertreatment system, that caused major failures in the engines.
