What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2014 and 2015 International Durastar trucks manufactured January 11, 2014, through January 23, 2014, and equipped with steering feature codes 05PRG, 05PRR, 05PRU, 05PRV or 05PSM. The bolts used to mount the steering gear to the frame may fail, resulting in either looseness of steering or the loss of steering.

The risk

A reduction in, or loss of, steering increases the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Navistar has notified owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the bolts as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on February 19, 2014. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-331-332-5000. Navistar's number for this campaign is 14502.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A 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.
