What's wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 International WorkStar vehicles manufactured March 16, 2012, to October 1, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the headlight low beam and ground circuits may have been reversed at the headlight connector resulting in reduced light output. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
Reduced light output may impair the driver's vision, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will correct the wiring in headlight harness connector, free of charge. The recall began on December 29, 2014. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 14525.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
