​Cummins Extends B6.7tm Base Warranty To Full 3 Years/Unlimited Miles In 2017

February 2017

COLUMBUS, IN… Continuing on the promise of dependability, Cummins Inc. has announced the introduction of a complete 3 year/unlimited mile base warranty for the B6.7 engine. This applies to 2017 B6.7 engines in on-highway trucks in North America.

The base warranty includes the same comprehensive coverage for parts and labor on warrantable failures for the engine and aftertreatment system. In addition, towing or travel coverage has been expanded from one to three years. There's no deductible, and even consumables used in the repair are included. Plus, with the B6.7 base warranty extension, customers can obtain the same durations of extended coverages of either up to 7 years or up to 300,000 miles at a lower cost than before, with year three now covered by Cummins.

"Cummins has more experience with the B6.7 than any other engine, as well as extensive knowledge on the B6.7 duty cycles. These factors have allowed us to confidently offer the unparalleled benefit of an extended base warranty to our customers," said Srikanth Padmanabhan, Cummins President - Engine Business. "By offering this additional coverage, the 2017 B6.7 continues to build on its legacy of dependability."

The true measure of confidence a manufacturer has in the reliability of its products is its commitment to back them up. Customers can now experience the extra peace of mind that an additional year of comprehensive coverage offers, proving again that Cummins is committed to dependability, customer service and lowering total cost of ownership in order to redefine value for its customers.
