Plain-English summary

Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2011 Holiday Rambler Trip and Monaco Vesta recreational vehicles manufactured between February 25, 2010, and April 4, 2011. These vehicles are equipped with a MaxxForce 7 engine. The recall involves a defect in the fuel system where a cap on the return fuel valve may fall off.

If the cap falls off, air may be drawn into the fuel system. This can result in the engine having difficulty starting, failing to start, or stalling while driving. An engine stall on the roadway increases the risk of a vehicle crash.

Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the return fuel valve cap free of charge. The safety recall was expected to begin on or about August 12, 2011. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
