The heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) blower motor circuit may have an insufficient wiring terminal that can overheat.
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2018-2019 International WorkStar, International DuraStar, 2019-2021 International HV, International MV, and IC Bus RE Commercial Bus vehicles. The sealing washer may not seat correctly in the pilot bore holes, allowing the high pressure fuel rail assembly to leak.

When the parking brake is applied and the automatic transmission is still in the drive or reverse position and the stationary PTO switch is engaged by the operator, the engine may rev and overcome the parking brake's ability to keep the vehicle from moving.

(Navistar) is recalling certain 2017-2020 International WorkStar and International DuraStar, 2018-2019 IC 1300 FBC Commercial and IC HC Commercial, 2018-2021 IC CE Commercial, International MV and International HV, and 2019-2021 IC TC Commercial buses with Cummins B6.7 diesel engines with a fuel module option number FS90301 or FS90453. The electric fuel heater within the fuel module may overheat and cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also lead to engine stalling.

Depending on the specific wiring of the vehicle, these brake lights may illuminate when the brake pedal has not been pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2019 International HX, DuraStar, WorkStar, HV, LoneStar, LT, MV, and RH vehicles, and IC Bus HC, CE, and RE vehicles equipped with long stroke brake chambers and spring actuated parking brakes.

These vehicles are equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' fire extinguishers that may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or excessive force may be needed to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable.
