What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

North American Repower LLC (North American Repower) is recalling one 2005 Navistar International 1652 4x2 Compressed Natural Gas vehicle equipped with CNG tanks that have Luxfer One-Turn valves recalled under 18E-111. If the knob is turned more than one turn, the valve's snap ring may fail and the valve stem may forcibly eject from the valve body.

The risk

The forcible ejection of the stem may increase the risk of injury to those nearby. Additionally, the unintended release of CNG can increase the risk of a fire.

The remedy

North American Repower has notified the owner, and provided an upgrade kit, free of charge. The recall began March 27, 2019. Owners may contact North American Repower customer service at 1-949-667-2673.

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.
