What happened

International Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2009-2010 model year International ProStar and LoneStar trucks equipped with Roll Stability Control (feature code 04AZT). The air line supplying the traction solenoid valve of the Roll Stability Control system may have been connected to an incorrect port on the air tank. If the RSC system is activated during a roll stability event, this misconnection will affect air modulation to the trailer brakes, potentially increasing the risk of a crash that could result in property damage, personal injury, or death. This condition does not affect normal service brake function or the tractor's RSC system.

Dealers will inspect and relocate the air line to the correct port on the air tank at no charge to owners. The safety recall began on February 19, 2010. According to the record, affected consumers should contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
