Consequence SummaryAn unexpected pull condition during braking application or an unexpected increase in stopping distance, increases the risk of a crash, leading to property damage, personal injury, or death.
Corrective SummaryNavistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace any missing caliper mounting bolts and tighten caliper mounting bolts, free of charge. the safety recall began on october 30, 2012. owners may contact navistar at 1-331-332-1590.
