What happened

Navistar is recalling certain 2012 International DuraStar and Workstar commercial trucks manufactured between April 26, 2011, and December 19, 2011, that are equipped with a 7 degree passenger seat. During testing, the front passenger seat separated from its mounting rails, which means the vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for seating systems. In a crash, the seat could come loose, increasing the risk of injury to the person sitting in it.

Navistar will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the seat adjuster rail, anchor plate, and mounting hardware at no cost. The recall began on December 18, 2012. Affected owners should contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
