Recall history
4 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
19V217000 · Fuel System, Diesel: Pre-Heater
Reported: 2019-03-20 (March 20, 2019)
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2017-2020 IC Bus CESB school buses equipped with Cummins B6.7 diesel engines with fuel module option number FS90301 or FS90453. The electrical wiring within the fuel heater may overheat and may cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also lead to engine stalling.
Consequence: A fire increases the risk of injury. An engine stall can increase the risk of crash.
Remedy: Cummins will notify the affected Navistar owners. Cummins dealers will replace the fuel heater with a newly designed fuel heater, free of charge. The recall began May 2, 2019. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467 or Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825.
NHTSA campaign record ↗19V373000 · Service Brakes, Air:Disc:Caliper
Reported: 2019-05-15 (May 15, 2019)
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2016-2020 IC CE and 2019 IC RE school buses equipped with Bendix ADB 22X brake calipers. The driver side rear brakes may drag.
Consequence: A dragging brake may cause damage to the brake components, which may activate the ABS warning light. The warning light may cause the driver to immediately stop the vehicle and transfer occupants. Additionally, the high temperatures at the wheel end can increase the risk of a fire. Either condition increases the risk of injury.
Remedy: Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left rear caliper with a redesigned adjuster mechanism, free of charge. The recall began July 12, 2019. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 19506.

NHTSA campaign record ↗20V220000 · Fuel System, Diesel: Pre-Heater
Reported: 2020-04-17 (April 17, 2020)
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2017-2021 IC CE School Buses equipped with Cummins B6.7 diesel engines with fuel module option number FS90301 or FS90453. The electric fuel heater within the fuel module may overheat and cause plastic in the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also lead to engine stalling.
Consequence: A fire increases the risk of injury. An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Cummins will notify the affected Navistar customers and dealers will disable the fuel heater by either installing a plug in place of the heater or otherwise rendering the fuel heater non-operable and remove the fuse supplying electrical power to the fuel heater and install a cover over the wire harness connector, free of charge. The recall began May 28, 2020. Owners may contact Cummins customer service at 1-800-286-6467.

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.
2022: 0 complaints · 2023: 0 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Date coverage across each selected cohort
| Year | Incident dates used | Filing date fallbacks | Excluded dates |
|---|---|---|---|

Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
