Cummins, Inc. is recalling 446 PowerDrive 7000 electric drive systems because a software error in the System Control Module (SCM) can cause the vehicle to reverse much faster than the driver expects. This issue occurs when the anti-rollback feature is unintentionally activated, leading to sudden or excessive speed while backing up. To fix this safety hazard, dealers will provide a free software update for the System Control Module to ensure the vehicle operates at correct speeds.
If the vehicle reverses faster than expected, the driver may lose control or be unable to react in time to obstacles, which significantly increases the risk of a crash.
