2008–2011 International Prostar & 2009–2011 International Lonestar recall: windows, wipers & mirrors
⚠️ What's wrong
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2008 through 2011 international Prostar and Lonestar heavy trucks manufactured from january 2, 2007 through june 1, 2010. The passenger side windshield wiper linkage rod may separate from either the wiper drive arm or passenger side pivot assembly.
💥 The risk
When the linkage separates, the passenger side wiper arm will no longer operate which could lead to reduced driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Navistar will notify owners and international dealers will replace the windshield wiper linkage assembly free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or about december 17, 2010. Owners may contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
