International Transtar: Engine and engine cooling — engine
Affects International Transtar · 2013–2015 — about 63 vehicles.
The hazard
If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there is an increased risk of a fire.
What to do
Cummins will notify owners on behalf of Navistar, and dealers will secure the ends of the 90-degree elbow. In addition, the electronic control module (ECM) will be reprogrammed with software that can adjust the engine output under misfire conditions to limit crankcase pressures. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on June 16, 2015. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825, or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.
