Posted on: 2019-01-30
Description
Navistar, inc. (navistar) is recalling certain 2019-2020 ic bus ce school buses equipped with hydraulic brakes. The brake pressure switch on these buses may become stuck possibly resulting in a false fault code and brake warning light on the instrument cluster.

Corrective Action
Navistar has notified owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any switch found from the suspect lot, free of charge. The recall began january 30, 2019. Owners may contact navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 18520.
