On certain trucks, a wire terminal for the blower motor circuit breaker in the power distribution module (PDM) could overheat and melt.
Wiring that overheats and melts can create the risk of a fire.
Navistar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealership to replace the blower motor wiring terminal in the PDM. The dealership will also inspect and, if necessary, replace the fuse block.
On some vehicles, the metallic battery box cover latch, when unlatched from its anchor, may articulate and potentially contact the battery jump start stud. If the jump start stud's protective cover has fallen off or is not installed, this may result in an electrical short to ground, increasing the risk of a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install a latch stop to prevent the latch from potentially contacting the stud.
A failure of this component (electrical) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
