(Navistar) is recalling certain 2017-2018 International ProStar and 9900i trucks, 2018-2019 International LT trucks, 2017-2019 International LoneStar and HX trucks and 2017 International PayStar trucks, equipped with Cummins ISX15 or X15 diesel engines. In certain driving conditions, such as on a long down-hill grade, the fuel line may burst if the fuel pump cooling circuit screen becomes restricted.

- Remedy
- Cummins will notify the affected owners and dealers will replace the nylon fuel line with a steel fuel line, free of charge. Navistar issued owners an interim notification on October 11, 2018. The recall began November 21, 2018. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825, or Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467.

What this recall means for you
A restricted fuel pump cooling screen can cause the fuel line to burst, particularly during long downhill driving. A burst line can leak fuel onto the road, creating a hazard for other drivers. The engine may also stall without warning and may not restart, which raises the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the nylon fuel line with a steel fuel line at no cost to you. Cummins will notify affected owners. If you have questions, contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825 or Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467. You can also check your vehicle's VIN for open recalls.
