2013 International Durastar recall: windows, wipers & mirrors
⚠️ What's wrong
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2013 international Durastar trucks, manufactured from february 12, 2012, through march 19, 2012, equipped with cab codes 16030 or 16AAK. The windshield and backlight glass on these vehicles were installed without primer seal application. Over time, this may cause separation from the cab.
💥 The risk
Without the proper bond, the windshield and/or backlight glass could separate from the cab, resulting in increased risk of personal injury or death.
🔧 The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the windshield and backlight glass on affected vehicles, free of charge. The safety recall began on july 18, 2012. 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.)
