Is my Cummins Onan P5000iDF EFI generator recalled?

Yes — if it is a Cummins Onan P5000iDF EFI Dual Fuel portable generator and the side label shows Model P5000iDF EFI and Part Number A075C500. On November 12, 2026, CPSC announced Cummins’s recall of about 2,960 of these generators (recall 27-087). They are sold in a dark gray color, run on gasoline or propane, and produce between 4,500 and 5,000 watts depending on fuel. “Cummins” is printed in white on the front and on the handle above the control panel; the Cummins “C” logo and “Onan P5000iDF EFI” are on the side. Cummins Safety Campaign 7308 states that only that model and part-number combination is included. The CPSC written notice does not itself print the part-number value; it tells you to check the campaign page and to read the side label. Do not treat a single photo’s “Build Date 08-2024” as a list of included dates. The units were sold at Camping World, Factory Pure, Northern Tool, and AP Electric stores and online at Cummins.com from May 2025 through August 2026 for between $1,640 and $1,930. This is not a Cummins 6.7 diesel truck recall.

The valves in the recalled generators were installed incorrectly, preventing fuel vapors from venting properly from the gasoline tank, causing excessive pressure to build up. This pressure can cause fuel to discharge or the fuel cap to eject, posing a risk of serious injury from fire and burn hazards. The firm has received eleven reports of fuel discharging from the unit and the fuel cap ejecting unexpectedly, including one consumer reporting being splashed in the face with fuel. No medical attention was needed. Consumers should stop using the recalled portable generators immediately. This is not medical advice.

Go to Cummins Safety Campaign 7308 to confirm the model and part number. If your unit is included, contact an authorized Cummins service location and arrange a free repair. CPSC points to the Service Locator at quickserve.cummins.com; Cummins’s campaign page points to cummins.com/en-na/locations and says to call the location before you transport the generator to confirm it can perform this recall. Cummins’s toll-free number is 800-286-6467 (1-800-CUMMINS), Monday through Friday anytime; you can also use care.cummins.com.

How to identify the recalled generators

This recall involves Cummins Onan P5000iDF EFI Dual Fuel Portable Generators sold in a dark gray color. They can operate on gasoline or propane and produce between 4,500 and 5,000 watts, depending on fuel. CPSC describes these marks:

  • “Cummins” printed in white on the front of the unit and on the handle above the control panel
  • The Cummins “C” logo and “Onan P5000iDF EFI” printed on the side
  • The model and part number on the label attached to the side of the generator

Part number A075C500

Cummins Safety Campaign 7308 states: “Only the following model and part number combination are part of this recall: Model P5000iDF EFI, Part Number A075C500.” The CPSC body text does not print that part-number value; it tells consumers to go to the campaign 7308 page to check if the model and part number is included, and to read the side label. This page attributes the exclusive included combination to the official campaign page. It does not invent additional part numbers.

The official CPSC photograph “Label on the side of the generator with the model and part number” shows where to look and visually includes Model P5000iDF EFI, Part Number A075C500, and a Build Date of 08-2024. That single photo’s “Build Date 08-2024” is not an inclusion list. Neither the CPSC notice nor the campaign 7308 page published a manufacturing-date range. CPSC and SaferProducts also did not publish a UPC list.

Fire and burn hazard

The valves in the recalled generators were installed incorrectly, preventing fuel vapors from venting properly from the gasoline tank, causing excessive pressure to build up. This pressure can cause fuel to discharge or the fuel cap to eject, posing a risk of serious injury from fire and burn hazards.

The firm has received eleven reports of fuel discharging from the unit and the fuel cap ejecting unexpectedly, including one consumer reporting being splashed in the face with fuel. No medical attention was needed.

Consumers should stop using the recalled portable generators immediately. This is not medical advice. This page does not add injury counts beyond the official firm reports, and it does not attribute those reports to CPSC.

Transporting the generator, and a swollen tank

These transport and handling steps come from Cummins’s campaign 7308 page, not from the CPSC body text:

  • Allow the generator to cool to the touch, typically 15 to 20 minutes after shutdown.
  • Keep the generator upright on a flat surface. Do not tilt it more than 15 degrees from its normal upright position.
  • If transporting with fuel in the tank, make sure the fuel cap is tightly sealed and transport the generator in a well-ventilated location.
  • Use the telescoping handle and built-in wheels. The generator weighs more than 50 pounds; if it must be lifted, two people should lift it using the designated handles.
  • If the fuel tank appears abnormally swollen or bulged, or if you smell gasoline or notice a fuel leak, do not transport or further handle the generator. Keep it away from flames, sparks, and other ignition sources and contact Cummins at care.cummins.com or 800-286-6467.

Cummins’s campaign page also says to contact the service location before transporting the generator, to confirm it is authorized to perform this recall repair and to schedule service.
