2015 International Prostar recalls

• Lights And Instruments#2023293May 18, 2023

  1,764 units affected

  Issue: On certain trucks, the backup lamps could be blocked and may not be visible. As a result, the trucks don't meet the requirements of the Canadian regulations. Note: This recall only affects trucks equipped with a pintle hook lowering bracket and feature code 01WPN, 01 WPS, or 01VAL. Safety Risk: Backup lamps that aren't visible could cause a person not to recognize that the vehicle is backing and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Navistar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealership to install new tail stop/turn signal lamps with integrated backup lamps.

• Electrical#2016373July 26, 2016

  52 units affected

  On certain vehicles equipped with the battery box mounted between the frame rails, the battery mounted cube fuse terminal connection could potentially break. A broken cube fuse terminal connection could cause the cab to lose all power which would result in a loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the cube fuse with a chassis mounted power distribution module (PDM) inside the battery box.

• Structure#2015214May 20, 2015

  278 units affected

  On certain vehicles, the weld joint between the upper stack tail pipe and the vertical exhaust pipe may crack and allow the exhaust pipe to separate from the vehicle. The pipe falling on the road surface could create a safety hazard potentially resulting in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the stack tail pipes with an approved replacement part.

• Electrical#2015171April 22, 2015

  8,552 units affected

  On certain vehicles, a double battery (24 volt) jump start or electrical load dump could result in an overvoltage condition of the linear power module (LPM) which is used to control the heater/air conditioning blower motor speed. If this were to occur, this overvoltage condition could lead to the LPM overheating, causing smoke, and increase the risk of fire, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the LPM with an upgraded design.

• Brakes#2015120March 18, 2015

  493 units affected

  On certain vehicles, brake chamber diaphragm(s) may not be properly seated. This could lead to brake drag, causing brake overheating or unintended spring brake application. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the brake chambers. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2014-573.

• Brakes#2014573December 17, 2014

  264 units affected

  On certain vehicles, brake chamber diaphragm(s) may not be properly seated. This could lead to brake drag, causing brake overheating or unintended spring brake application. These issues could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs as necessary.

• Heater And Defroster#2014484October 30, 2014

  1,424 units affected

  On certain vehicles equipped with a no-idle heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) module, the electrical harness supplying power to the module may not be of sufficient size, which could cause a voltage drop in the harness and an increase in resistance and heating at the connector. This could cause a fire, potentially resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a revised harness.

• Brakes#2014141April 22, 2014

  169 units affected

  On certain vehicles equipped with air disc brakes, the brake caliper bolts may have been insufficiently tightened, or an insufficient number of bolts may have been installed at time of vehicle assembly. Loose or missing bolts could allow a caliper to detach from its mount, resulting in partial loss of brake function, which could increase stopping distance and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace missing bolts, if any, and tighten all caliper bolts to the specified torque.

• Label#2014140April 22, 2014

  417 units affected

  Certain trucks may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. Vehicles may not bear a compliance label, or the compliance label may be missing Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) information. This could result in vehicle overloading, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Owners will be sent a revised compliance label.
