Problem: On certain motorhomes equipped with cummins engines, oil can leak into the engine compartment from a crack in the cup plug.

Risk: Oil leakage on a hot engine can result in an engine compartment fire, possibly resulting in injuries.

Fix: Cummins is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Cummins will install a steel cup plug boss cap to all affected engines. Owners should contact cummins customer assistance center at 1-800-343-7357 or Monaco at 1-800-685-6545.
