What happened

Navistar is recalling certain 2011-2015 International DuraStar, ProStar, TranStar, and WorkStar vehicles, as well as 2012-2015 TerraStar, 2013-2015 LoneStar and IC Bus HC, and 2014-2015 IC Bus AC vehicles. The HVAC system's linear power module (LPM), which controls blower speed, can overheat and fail if an overvoltage condition occurs, such as during a double battery jump start or electrical load dump event. If the LPM fails, there is an increased risk of fire.

Navistar will notify owners and replace the LPM with an upgraded one at no charge. An initial notification letter was mailed to owners on June 18, 2015, with a second notification to be sent once replacement parts become available. The recall began on August 6, 2015. Owners should contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825 or reference recall number 15509 for information about their vehicle.
