Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:ABS WARNING LIGHT

May 25, 2023
59,684 units potentially affected
The defect: Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2021-2024 International HV, HX, LoneStar, LT, MV, eMV, and RH trucks, and IC Bus CE, 2021-2023 IC Bus RE, and 2022-2023 IC Bus TC Commercial Buses. The anti-lock brake system (ABS) indicator light does not remain illuminated when a malfunction exists, and when the vehicle's ignition switch is on, and the vehicle is in motion. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
The risk: An ABS indicator light that fails to remain illuminated will not alert the driver of an ABS malfunction, which could increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy: Towing variant vehicles under this campaign will not be repaired under recall 24V-8918. Dealers will update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 24, 2023. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 23515.

Steering intermittently goes into a shake/ shimmy at various speeds, frequently on curves. Steering wheel will shake and occasionally it gets intense enough for items in the cab of the truck to shake violently. Symptoms match NHTSA document IK0500038. 2 dealerships have been innefectual in addressing the issues. The problem started around 42,000 miles and persists currently at 71,000 miles.The truck has been back multiple times for this issue and is now up to 6 weeks of down time with no improvement. None of the International dealers have voluntarily given me any documentation to keep for my records.

Manufacturer communications

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.

IK0800563

POWER TRAIN

Feature code 0008TSJ for auto start stop is a feature that will allow you to preset values in the body controller to allow the truck to start when the battery voltage or engine oil temperature reaches the preset value. The engine will then run for a preset time after battery voltage is within programmed value (if the engine started for low voltage) or the engine will run until oil temperature reaches a programmed value (if the engine started for oil temperature).

ENGINE

Effective January 1, 2008 , engines built for vehicles registered in California or a CARB (Air Resources Board of California) opt-in state must be emission certified under the new California Idle Reduction Rule (CCR Title 13 Section 1956.8(a)(6)). A CARB opt-in state is any state other than California that requires CARB emission certified engines. The new ruling states that new diesel-powered vehicles with a GVWR greater than 14,000 lbs and a MY2008 or later engine that are initially registered in California must have a tamper-proof engine shutdown system (ESS) or a low NOx idle main engine unless it is a vocationally exempted vehicle.

They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
