What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2021 International MV and HV vehicles equipped with feature code 10EWW, 10EYD, 10HYR, or 10JPJ (Fifth wheel, stationary), 10HJA (Fifth wheel, air slide) or 10WDN (Fifth wheel mounting angles). The vehicles may not have had sections of reflective tape applied to the right and left upper contours of the cab. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamp, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The risk

Without the reflective strips, a truck operating without a trailer at night may be less visible, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will install reflective tape to the back of the cab, free of charge. The recall began October 21, 2020. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 20508.

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.
