Issued by Winkelmann Flowform Technology LP · Reported Apr 10, 2020 · 5 vehicles affected
What's wrong
Winkelmann Flowform Technology LP (WFT) is recalling certain 327 liter compressed natural gas cylinders, part number CNG-327L-2560N. The font size of the cylinder labels may be too small and may be missing the type 3 designation, which will prevent the cylinders from passing inspection. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 304, "Compressed Natural Gas Fuel Container Integrity."
Consequence
If the cylinders cannot be inspected or pass inspection, the cylinders can fail and increase the risk of a fire or injury.
Remedy
WFT will notify owners, and provide replacement cylinder labels, free of charge. The recall began on April 20, 2020. Owners may contact WFT customer service at 1-334-758-6400.
