2019 International HV & 2019 International Workstar recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2019 International WorkStar and International HV vehicles equipped with Meritor MX-14-120 EVO steer axles. The axles may have insufficient lubrication, which may result in damage to the wheel end bearings.
💥 The risk
If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.
🔧 The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the steer axle wheel hubs for proper fluid level and repair any damaged wheel end components and spindles, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began May 1, 2020. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 20503.
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.)
