    Engine and Engine Cooling / Engine

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Eldorado National-California, Inc. (Eldorado) is recalling certain model year 2007-2015 Axess, E-Z Rider II, and XHF vehicles manufactured July 1, 2007, to May 2, 2015, and equipped with certain Cummins Westport ISL G engines. Excessive engine crankcase pressures may cause the 90-degree elbow of the vent tube assembly to detach from the crankcase ventilation breather, possibly allowing engine oil to come into contact with hot surfaces.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Cummins has notified owners on behalf of Eldorado, and Cummins service centers will administer the repairs which include securing the ends of the 90-degree elbow and reprogramming the electronic control module (ECM) with software that can adjust the engine output under misfire conditions to limit crankcase pressures. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on June 16, 2015. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-909-591-9557 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.

    Vehicle Speed Control / Accelerator Pedal

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Eldorado National-California, Inc. (Eldorado) is recalling certain model year 2008-2009 Axess, E-Z Rider II, XHF, Escort RE-A, and Transmark RE vehicles manufactured April 1, 2008, to December 30, 2008. The mechanical springs used to return the accelerator pedal to idle after the driver lifts their foot off the pedal may break.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the springs break, the pedal may not return to idle once the driver lifts their foot off the pedal. This unintended acceleration increases the risk of a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Eldorado has notified owners, and dealers will replace the affected pedal assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on December 8, 2014. Owners may contact Eldorado customer service at 1-909-591-9557.

The specific potting compound used in the subject products for insulation was found to be capable of conducting electricity after being exposed to heat.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
