Over time, the mounting brackets for the front grille surround (trim) could loosen or detach. If this happens, the grille surround could detach from the vehicle.
A grille surround that separates from the vehicle could create a hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.
Navistar will notify owners by mail and advise you to inspect the grille surround periodically, and repair it if necessary. Navistar will send you a second notice when the replacement parts are available, and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the grille surround assembly.
On certain trucks, the connecting rod bushings could fail due to a manufacturing defect. This could cause an engine failure that can result in a sudden loss of power with an inability to restart. Note: This is an expansion of recall 21505 (Transport Canada Recall 2021-240).
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a stalled vehicle could also increase the risk of crash.
Navistar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer install a detection system to warn a driver if there is a problem with the connecting rod bushing. The system will cause a red engine warning light to turn on if a problem is detected, before a connecting rod failure happens. Engines found with a suspect connecting rod will be repaired.
On certain trucks, the welds that attach the trailer hitch may crack due to improper welding. As a result, the hitch could detach from the truck while towing a trailer. Note: This recall only affects certain trucks with trailer hitches installed by Commercial Truck Equipment.
A trailer that detaches from a truck could create a risk of a crash.
Commercial Truck Equipment will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to inspect the trailer hitch and repair or replace it, as necessary. You should stop using the trailer hitch until the inspection and repair have been completed.
On certain trucks, the connections inside the brake switch could break. UPDATE – When Navistar notified Transport Canada about this problem, they believed that it may cause the brake lights not to work properly. After further investigation, Navistar has determined that this problem will cause the ABS light to turn on, however the brake lights will continue to function. Accordingly, this safety recall was withdrawn.
This problem does not pose a safety risk.
This is not a recall. This notice is for information only. If the ABS light on your truck turns on, you should contact a local International truck repair facility to have it repaired.
