Navistar, Inc. is recalling approximately 15,398 IC Bus CE school buses from model years 2016 and 2018 through 2024. The recall was initiated because the brake pressure switch assembly can leak brake fluid into electrical components, causing a short-circuit. This electrical failure can lead to the circuit overheating and starting a fire while the bus is in operation or parked. Owners will receive a free replacement of the brake pressure switch and, if needed, a new wire harness or fuse.
The defect allows brake fluid to enter electrical areas, creating a short-circuit that can overheat and ignite. Because this can happen while the vehicle is parked, there is a risk of fire spreading to nearby buildings or structures.
You have 2 options:
