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.

Risk: Unexpected Vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Free fix: Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will update the parameters in the Cummins ECM for feature codes 12VXT or 12VXU that enables the PTO neutral interlock, free of charge. The recall began February 17, 2021. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 20510.

Problem: Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2016 International DuraStar, LoneStar, ProStar, TerraStar, TranStar, WorkStar, 9900i, and IC Bus HC vehicles equipped with certain Spicer D or E series steer axles. The castellated nut on the steer axles may not be properly torqued, allowing the tie rod to loosen.

Risk: If the tie rod loosens, it may disconnect from the steering knuckle, causing a complete loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.

Free fix: Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the torque of the castellated nut and tie rod, tightening it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on November 8, 2017.
