Monday, March 3rd, 2014 Auto Subrogation

Engine maker Cummins Inc. and its joint venture Cummins Westport Inc. are recalling 25,013 engines because cold weather could cause a sensor to fail, resulting in an exhaust fire. No injuries have been reported but Cummins Westport has received two reports of flames coming from vehicle exhaust pipes. The engines can be found in a variety of commercial vehicles including school and transit buses as well as fire trucks. Among the companies to which Cummins shipped the engines is school bus manufacturer Blue Bird Corp.
