Safety Campaign #7308 P5000iDF EFI Portable Generator - Fuel Evaporation System Valve Inspection / Reinstallation, Fuel Tank Inspection, and Fuel Hose Routing Change

Cummins is conducting a voluntary recall of certain Onan P5000iDF EFI Dual Fuel Portable Generators labelled with part number A075C500 and sold under the Cummins brand. The affected generators were sold between May 2025 and August 2026. 

Cummins recently determined that the valves in the evaporative emissions ("EVAP") system may have been installed incorrectly, which can prevent proper venting of fuel vapors from the gasoline fuel tank. This condition may cause pressure to build in the fuel system during operation, potentially damaging the generator or causing a thermal event, resulting in injury or property damage. Out of an abundance of caution, Cummins is recalling affected generators for repair.

Recalled Unit

Only the following model and part number combination are part of this recall: Model P5000iDF EFI, Part Number A075C500. The model and part number can be found on the model information label attached to the side of the generator, identified in the image below.

What You Should Do

• STOP USING the recalled generator immediately.
• HAVE THE GENERATOR REPAIRED AT NO COST. Bring your affected generator to an authorized Cummins Distributor Branch or Authorized Service Provider for a free repair. The repair will include inspection of the EVAP system valves, with corrections made as necessary to ensure proper installation.
• LOCATE AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE LOCATION by visiting https://www.cummins.com/en-na/locations. Search for a Cummins Distributor Location or Dealer and contact the location before transporting your generator to confirm that it is authorized to perform this recall repair and to schedule service.

Transporting Your Generator

• Allow the generator to cool to the touch before handling, typically 15 to 20 minutes after shutdown.
• Keep the generator upright on a flat surface and secure it to prevent movement during transportation. Do not tilt the generator more than 15 degrees from its normal upright position.
• If transporting the generator with fuel in the tank, make sure the fuel cap is tightly sealed and transport the generator in a well-ventilated location.
• When moving the generator, use the telescoping handle and built-in wheels. The generator weighs more than 50 pounds. If the generator must be lifted, two people should lift it using the designated handles and proper lifting practices.
• 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 the generator away from flames, sparks, and other ignition sources and contact Cummins at care.cummins.com or call 1-800-CUMMINS (1-800-286-6467) for additional guidance.
