International Prostar 2011

• Recall 2015434 [Canada]: Structure
  On certain vehicles, the fifth wheel locking mechanisms could be susceptible to damage and/or wear. This could cause the locking mechanism to fail properly engage, potentially resulting in a towed trailer unit separating from the truck tractor. As a result, the trailer could strike another vehicle, stationary object, or bystander, causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: fontaine dealers will replace all ultra lt fifth wheel units with ultra nt model fifth wheel units.

• Recall 2015171 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles, a double battery (24 volt) jump start or electrical load dump could result in an overvoltage condition of the linear power module (lpm) which is used to control the heater/air conditioning blower motor speed. If this were to occur, this overvoltage condition could lead to the lpm overheating, causing smoke, and increase the risk of fire, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will replace the lpm with an upgraded design.

• Recall 2014484 [Canada]: Heater and defroster
  On certain vehicles equipped with a no-idle heating, ventilation and air conditioning (hvac) module, the electrical harness supplying power to the module may not be of sufficient size, which could cause a voltage drop in the harness and an increase in resistance and heating at the connector. This could cause a fire, potentially resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will install a revised harness.

• Recall 2013314 [Canada]: Accessories
  On certain trucks equipped with the electronic fifth wheel jaw release system, incorrect air line routing could allow the fifth wheel jaw to release without driver input. This could result in a trailer separating from the truck, resulting in a possible hazard to other road users and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: dealers will inspect air line routing and correct if necessary.

• Recall 2013122 [Canada]: Structure
  On certain trucks, the sunshade (an exterior visor mounted above the windshield) may not have been fastened to the cab roof correctly during the manufacturing process. A sunshade separating from the vehicle could strike another vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will inspect and, if necessary, secure the sunshade mounts.

• Recall 2012311 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles, the piston spring brake chamber may have been manufactured incorrectly and could allow air leakage into the chamber. As a result, the parking brake may not fully release, thereby causing brake drag which could result in a wheel-end fire. Should rapid air loss occur, the spring brakes would suddenly engage causing immediate brake lock-up. If this happens while the vehicle is in motion, it could result in a crash. These issues could also result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will replace the spring brake chambers.

• Recall 2012147 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain trucks equipped with a maxxforce 11 or 13 engine, the positive alternator cable may rub against the high pressure power steering hose. Continued contact could wear through the alternator cable's insulation, which could cause an electrical short circuit. An electrical short could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will install a bracket to route the alternator wires away from the power steering hose. Note: this recall supersedes recall 2011302.

• Recall 2012053 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles equipped with bendix atr-6 antilock traction relay valves, in extremely cold conditions (at or below -18 degrees celsius), internal atr valve leakage can occur. This could cause unintended brake application, which could overheat the affected brakes and cause a fire. Also, in certain low traction conditions, unexpected brake application can cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will update the cover assembly on the atr valves.

• Recall 2011302 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain trucks equipped with a maxxforce 11 or 13 engine, the positive alternator cable may rub against the high pressure power steering hose. Continued contact could wear through the alternator cable's insulation, which could cause an electrical short circuit. An electrical short could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will install a bracket to route the alternator wires away from the power steering hose. Note: this recall is superseded by recall 2012147.

• Recall 2011161 [Canada]: Brakes
  Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of canada motor vehicle safety standard 121 - air brake systems. The trailer antilock brake system (abs) fault indicator lamp may not illuminate if a trailer abs fault occurs, due to a programming or hardware issue with the brake system electronic control unit. An inoperable trailer abs fault indicator may prevent the driver from being aware of a trailer abs fault condition, thereby increasing the risk of a crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will reprogram or replace the abs electronic control unit.

• Recall 2010096 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles equipped with an optional jump start stud, corrosion at the base of the stud may cause an electrical short between the stud and battery box resulting in a vehicle fire causing property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: dealers will install a new redesigned jump start stud.

• Recall 2010200 [Canada]: Steering
  On certain trucks, the fastener that clamps the pitman arm to the steering gear shaft may not have been torqued to specifications during vehicle assembly. This could cause wear of the interconnecting splines of the arm and shaft, possibly allowing the pitman arm to slip over the shaft, resulting in a reduction of steering control which could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: dealers will replace the tubular shaped spacer bracket with a solid spacer block.

• Recall 2010286 [Canada]: Visual system
  On certain trucks, the passenger side windshield wiper linkage rod may separate from either the wiper motor drive arm or the passenger side pivot assembly. If the linkage separates, the passenger side wiper arm will no longer operate which could lead to reduced driver visibility. Decreased driver visibility may increase the risk of a crash possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: dealers will install a redesigned windshield wiper linkage assembly.

• Recall 2010455 [Canada]: Powertrain
  On certain vehicles, the rubber isolator material that holds the driveline center bearing in the mounting bracket may deteriorate, which could result in driveline separation without warning. The resultant loss of propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will replace the center bearing and its mounting hardware.
