Reported: 2023-02-10 (February 10, 2023) · Model years: 2022, 2023
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2022-2024 IC Bus CE, 2022-2023 IC CE SBus, IC RE, and 2023 EV school buses. The roof panel may have been manufactured with insufficient joint strength.

Remedy: Dealers will add additional fasteners to secure the joints, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed April 3, 2023. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 23501.
Reported: 2024-02-08 (February 8, 2024) · Model years: 2024
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2024 IC Bus CE school buses. The steering gear assemblies may have been assembled incorrectly with fewer recirculating balls than are required, which may result in a loss of steering control.
Consequence: A loss of steering control increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect and replace the defective gears, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 30, 2024. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 24504.
Reported: 2024-05-15 (May 15, 2024) · Model years: 2024
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2024-2025 IC Bus CE SBUS school buses equipped with Intellipark Park Valve Modules (PVM). The rubber ball seal in the PVM may fracture and cause a leak, which can result in park brake failure or unexpected park brake engagement while driving.
Consequence: Park brake failure or unexpected park brake engagement while driving increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the Intellipark PVM, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 01, 2024. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 24507.
Reported: 2024-05-29 (May 29, 2024) · Model years: 2024
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2024-2025 IC Bus CE school buses. The brake lights, in certain conditions, may not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed, due to a software error. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence: Brake lights that fail to illuminate can reduce the visibility of the bus or fail to indicate to other drivers that the bus is slowing down, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 24, 2024. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 24508.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
