Ic Bus recall: Service brakes, hydraulic
Park outside. NHTSA and the maker advise parking these vehicles outside and away from buildings until they are repaired.
What is wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2016 and 2018-2024 IC Bus CE school buses. The brake pressure switch assembly may leak brake fluid into the brake pressure switch's electrical components and cause an electrical short-circuit.
What could happen
An electrical short in the brake pressure switch can overheat the circuit and increase the risk of a fire while driving or parked.
The fix
Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures until the recall repair is complete. Dealers will replace the brake pressure switch assembly and if necessary, the wire harness or fuse, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 29, 2023. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 23518.
