Navistar, Inc. is recalling approximately 6,948 IC RE, IC EV, and IC CE school buses because the fasteners connecting the rear axle housing to the torque arm may have been tightened incorrectly. This defect can allow the rear axle to shift side to side while driving. Owners of affected 2023 and 2024 models can have their vehicles repaired by a dealer free of charge.
A loose rear axle can cause the bus to become unstable or lose handling control, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, the vehicle may become unstable during an emergency evacuation, which increases the risk of injury to passengers.
Dealers will replace and correctly tighten the axle fasteners free of charge.
