Navistar Recalls 2011 International Trucks and Buses for Oil Leak Fire Risk

Navistar is recalling 2,309 model year 2011 International trucks and buses because an engine oil line may rub against the frame, causing a leak and potential fire.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly states that the oil leak may cause a fire, which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or structural defects leading to fire hazards, warranting a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2011 International commercial trucks (models 4300 and 4400) and IC Bus commercial buses (models CE and ICCB) manufactured between February 25, 2010, and September 20, 2010. The recall involves 2,309 vehicles.

The defect involves the engine turbo oil supply line, which may rub on the frame rail. This friction can cause an oil leak in the engine compartment, which may result in a fire.

Navistar will notify owners, and International dealers will repair the buses and trucks free of charge. The safety recall was expected to begin on or about January 14, 2011. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
