Safety Recalls and Authorized Field Changes

Safety Recalls and Authorized Field Changes are two
campaigns that are used to notify owners of modifications
that may involve their vehicle. If you receive such notification,
PLEASE FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED IN THE
CUSTOMER LETTER. If your vehicle is part of a Safety Recall
campaign, the recall service procedure must be completed to
ensure safe operation of your vehicle. As a vehicle owner,
you must provide IC Bus dealers with address corrections and
changes to ensure that you receive all notifications. Please
verify that your IC Busdealer has your correct address. Dealers
also have a record of any outstanding campaigns that affect
your vehicle.

Emission Control Systems

NOTE: Federal and California Emission system warranties
are found in your Engine Operation and Maintenance
Manual.

HD-OBD Foreword

Heavy Duty On-Board Diagnostics (HD-OBD) is a U.S.
Government mandated standard for all 2013 and later Class 4
and above vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
of 14,001 pounds or more. The HD-OBD system monitors the
engine and aftertreatment systems to verify they are operating
within emissions limits. If an emissions fault is logged, the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate and one or more
fault codes will be set.
The HD-OBD system operates similarly to previous power train
control systems by storing fault codes and turning on the MIL. If
the problem that caused the fault goes away, the code will clear
and the MIL will go out after certain operating conditions have
been met. This may take several times operating the vehicle.
Supplemental Federal Emission Control System Warranty
The United States Environmental Protection Agency adopted
new heavy-duty Greenhouse Gas (GHG) vehicle regulations on
15 September 2011. This vehicle may be certified to the GHG
regulations. For certified vehicles, additional GHG emissions
control system warranty covers certain vehicle components.
This Supplemental GHG Federal Emission Control System
Warranty coverage for these vehicle components will be
managed according to current Federal Emission Control System
Warranty process. The GHG emission control system warranty
applies to the below listed vehicle components such that they
meet the following two conditions:
1. The vehicle and / or GHG emission control system
component is designed, built, and equipped so it
conforms at the time of sale to the ultimate purchaser
with the requirements of the GHG regulations and such
component is an emission control and appears on the
GHG vehicle emission certification label, and
2. The vehicle and / or GHG emission control system
component is free from defects in materials and
workmanship that cause the vehicle to fail to conform
to the GHG requirements during the applicable
supplemental warranty period.
