Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Navistar is recalling certain International Motors buses and trucks manufactured between December 2, 2010, and January 26, 2012, that are equipped with Bendix ATR-6 traction relay valves. In extremely cold conditions, these valves may develop internal leakage that can cause air pressure to be delivered to the brakes continuously. This unexpected continuous brake application can cause the brakes to overheat and potentially catch fire, may cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle and crash, and may apply the brakes without illuminating the brake lights, preventing other drivers from receiving proper warning.
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will provide a temporary repair at no charge until Bendix develops a permanent remedy. The recall began on April 10, 2012. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
