The problem

Gillig, LLC (Gillig) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Low Floor vehicles equipped with Cummins L9 Diesel Engines. The engine calibration software's management of the injection of Diesel Exhaust Fluid can allow excessive ammonia into the tailpipe exhaust.

The risk

Exposure to high levels of ammonia can increase the risk of injury.

The fix

Cummins will recalibrate the engine, free of charge. Owners may contact Gillig's customer service at 1-510-264-5073 or 1-800-735-1500.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
