Cummins is recalling about 2,960 Onan portable generators because a fuel-system defect can cause gasoline to spray out or the fuel cap to fly off. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Cummins say owners should stop using the recalled units immediately and arrange a free repair.
Where to find the model and part number
Look for model P5000iDF EFI and part number A075C500 on the label on the side of the generator. Cummins’ recall notice identifies that specific combination. The dark gray portable generator runs on gasoline or propane and has white Cummins lettering on the front. The recalled units sold between May 2025 and August 2026 for $1,640 to $1,930 at Camping World, Factory Pure, Northern Tool, AP Electric and through Cummins online.
The CPSC says incorrectly installed valves can block fuel vapors from venting out of the gasoline tank. Cummins received 11 reports involving fuel discharge or an unexpectedly ejected cap. One person reported being splashed in the face with fuel. The commission said no medical attention was needed.
How to get the free repair
Use the Cummins service locator or call 800-286-6467. Call the service location before transporting the generator to confirm it can perform recall campaign 7308 and to schedule the repair. Cummins says the service includes checking the fuel vapor system valves and correcting their installation as needed. Its recall page also lists transport precautions.
