The problem

Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2017 International ProStar, LoneStar, PayStar, HX, and 9900 trucks equipped with a Cummins ISX15L engine using certain engine control modules (ECM). These ECM's may experience an internal electrical short that can cause a fuse to blow, resulting in an unexpected engine stall without the ability to restart the engine.

The risk

An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

Cummins will notify owners, and Cummins dealers will replace the ECM, free of charge. The recall began on July 8, 2016. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357 or Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590.
