What this recall means for you
A turbocharger oil supply line on certain engines may contact or rub against nearby parts, including the turbocharger inlet elbow, the clean air intake clamp, or the air fuel control tube. This contact can cause the line to leak oil.
If oil leaks near the engine exhaust manifold, the risk of a fire increases. Owners should take this seriously and have their vehicle checked promptly.
The repair is free at an authorized dealer. The dealer will inspect the oil supply line for interference or damage, remove the interference, and replace the line if needed. Owners may also contact Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357. You can also check your VIN for open recalls.
