Navistar is recalling 770 of its 2021-2024 International LT and International RH trucks due to a software error in the engine control module. This defect can cause the engine to ignore the throttle pedal and suddenly drop to idle speed while being driven on the road. Navistar dealers will provide a free software update to fix this issue, and owner notification letters are expected to be sent by May 26, 2023.
The engine may suddenly become unresponsive to the gas pedal, causing the truck to unexpectedly slow down to idle speed while in traffic. This sudden loss of power on a roadway significantly increases the risk of a rear-end collision or other crash.
