What happened

International Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2015-2016 International 9900 and Lonestar trucks manufactured between January 6, 2014, and March 13, 2015. These vehicles have a 6-inch diameter stack tail pipe that may lack sufficient support, and over time, vibration from normal driving can cause a crack in the weld joint where the inlet pipe connects to the stack tail pipe. This crack can lead to partial or complete separation of the stack tail pipe from the exhaust pipe.

If the stack tail pipe separates, it can fall into the roadway and potentially strike another vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Navistar will notify owners about this recall, which began on July 20, 2015, and dealers will replace the affected stack tail pipe with a one-piece stack tail pipe at no charge. Affected consumers should contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825 and reference recall number 15511.
