Issue

On certain school buses equipped with a MaxxForce 7 engine, a cap on the return fuel valve may fall off, allowing air to be drawn into the fuel system. This could result in engine hard start, no start, or stall conditions. Engine stall on the roadway may result in the evacuation and containment of multiple passengers, which could increase the risk of personal injury. In addition, lost vehicle propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the return fuel valve assembly.
