Defect

On certain heavy duty trucks equipped with cummins westport b gas plus or c gas plus 6 cylinder engines, the electronic control module calibration may not correctly detect a throttle plate actuator failure that could result in an uncommanded open throttle condition.

Safety risk

If this event occurs, the vehicle operator will not have control of the engine speed which could possibly result in a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Both units have already had the electronic control module calibration replaced.

Notes

Also, customers can contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
