What happened

Navistar is recalling certain 2010-2015 International Lonestar vehicles and 2009-2015 International ProStar vehicles manufactured between October 2009 and June 2014. The electrical harness that powers the HVAC system in these vehicles may be undersized for the electrical load it carries, which can cause increased resistance and heating at the connectors and potentially result in a vehicle fire.

Owners will be notified by Navistar, and the remedy involves dealers replacing the 60 amp relay and battery harness with a 150 amp relay and battery harness at no cost. Affected consumers should contact Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590 or reference recall number 14516 to arrange for the repair.
