What happened

Navistar is recalling certain 2011 International 4300 commercial trucks manufactured between August 3, 2010, and November 23, 2010, that are equipped with Maxxforce 7 engines. The fuel lines and transmission electrical harness in these vehicles may have been routed too close to the engine turbo exhaust pipe, which could cause fuel to leak onto the turbo pipe or cause the electrical harness to melt and potentially burn, creating a fire hazard that could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

Navistar will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles at no cost. The recall began on January 28, 2011. Affected owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825 for more information.
