In the affected vehicles, the Engine Control Module (ECM) may short circuit, causing the engine to stall without warning.

Consequence

An engine that stalls without warning increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Navistar will notify owners, and Cummins dealers will replace the ECM, free of charge. The recall began on October 22, 2015. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825, or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.

The affected vehicles are equipped with Meritor MT-40-14X rear drive axles that may circulate an inadequate amount of lubricant to the wheel end hub assembly.

Consequence
