International MV Recall 21V366: Fuel rail leak can cause fire in commercial trucks and buses

NHTSA campaign 21V366, reported May 19, 2021, 1,780 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

A sealing washer on the high-pressure fuel rail may not seat correctly in its bore holes, which can allow diesel fuel to leak from the fuel rail assembly.

Fuel leaking near an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire. Owners should treat any sign of fuel odor, visible leaking fuel, or unusual smells around the engine as a reason to stop driving the vehicle and have it checked.

Dealers will inspect the fuel rail threads and replace the fuel rail if needed, at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 21, 2021. To check whether your vehicle is covered, look up your VIN for open recalls, or contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825.
