    Equipment Adaptive/Mobility

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2007-2015 IC BE and CE school buses, 2013-2015 IC AE school buses, 2007-2011 IC FE school buses, and 2007-2014 IC RE school buses equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts by Ricon. The affected lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the bearings move out of position, the stowed platform may have excessive movement resulting in failure of the platform mounting. This failure could cause the wheel chair lift platform to fall out of the vehicle when the doors are opened, increasing the risk of injury for the lift operator.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar will notify the purchasers of the lifts, and dealers will inspect the link arms for damage or for displaced bearings. The platform will be inspected for cracks. Any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on February 19, 2016. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Note: These buses and wheelchair lifts were subject to a similar recall in 2014. All vehicles that received that recall remedy are still affected by this recall as well.

    Visibility / Defroster/Defogger/HVAC System / Fan/Motor

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 IC Bus AE school buses manufactured February 14, 2013, to March 10, 2014. A vehicle double battery jump start or electrical load dump event could result in an overvoltage condition of a component within the HVAC system linear power module (LPM) which is used to control the blower speed. The overvoltage condition could result in the overheating and failure of the LPM.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the LPM overheats and fails, there is an increased risk of a fire.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the LPM with an upgraded one, free of charge. The recall began on June 17, 2015. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 15510.

  3. 14V692000Received . 4,784 units.

    Equipment Adaptive/Mobility

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 IC AE, 2007-2015 IC BE, CE, 2007-2011 IC FE, and 2007-2014 IC RE school buses equipped with certain model S2005, S2010, S5005, S5010, S5505, and S5510 wheelchair lifts manufactured by Ricon Corporation after January 1, 2006. The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the platform side plates crack, the lift platform can separate from the lift and come to rest against the vehicle's lift door. When the doors are opened, the platform may fall out, increasing the risk of injury to the lift operator.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar will notify owners to take buses to a Ricon dealer or service center who will install supplemental platform support bumpers. Any platform that has already started cracking will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on January 29, 2015. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590 or Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884. Navistar's number for this recall is 14518.

    Report filed by Navistar, Inc.. Manufacturer campaign number 14518. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .

  4. 13V630000Received . 2,357 units.

    Seat Belts

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2014 IC Bus AE, BE and RE and model year 2014-2015 IC Bus CE school buses manufactured August 08, 2013, through November 14, 2013 and equipped with IMMI-brand L9 seat belt buckles. When the button is pressed to release the seat belt, the latch plate can become partially engaged with the buckle, making the seat belt difficult to unlatch. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the latch plate remains partially engaged after the button is pressed, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the seat belt buckles, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2014. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's numbers for this campaign are 13519 and 13520.

    Report filed by Navistar, Inc.. Manufacturer campaign number 13519 and 13520. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .

  5. 13V308000Received . 22,264 units.

    Seats

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 IC Bus AE, and 2011-2014 BE, CE, and RE buses. These buses were manufactured February 11, 2010, through June 17, 2013. The passenger seat foam padding did not adequately reduce the impact forces to the knee in the lower outside corners of the seat back during compliance testing. Thus, these buses fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection."
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    In the event of a crash, the seat padding may not properly protect against knee impact force, increasing the risk of injury.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will install polystyrene blocks in the lower outside corners of each seat to increase the knee protection, free of charge. The recall began on October 10, 2013. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's recall campaign number is 13512.
