What happened

Navistar is recalling certain IC model year 2010 FE and RE transit buses manufactured between June 1 and August 19, 2009. The wires in the headlight electrical harness may have been installed in incorrect connector cavities, causing the low beam headlights to have decreased intensity. This condition means the vehicles' low beam headlights do not meet federal safety standards and increase the risk of a crash.

Navistar will notify owners and has dealers inspect and repair the headlight electrical harness connector wiring free of charge. The recall began on March 5, 2010. Affected owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
