- The defect
- Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2019-2021 International MV, 2020-2021 International HV, 2014-2020 International DuraStar and 2015-2018 International WorkStar vehicles. When the parking brake is applied and the automatic transmission is still in the drive or reverse position and the stationary PTO switch is engaged by the operator, the engine may rev and overcome the parking brake's ability to keep the vehicle from moving.
- What it can cause
- Unexpected Vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
- What the dealer does
- Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will update the parameters in the Cummins ECM for feature codes 12VXT or 12VXU that enables the PTO neutral interlock, free of charge. The recall began February 17, 2021. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 20510.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 17,213 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 83% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2014 to 2021, so the oldest vehicles on it were 6 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
International vehicles have been recalled over the engine and engine cooling 22 times before this, most recently in February 2019 as 19V122000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 16 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V459000 (electrical system), 25V817000 (electrical system), 25V502000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 25V178000 (service brakes, air).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Navistar, Inc. with NHTSA on December 23, 2020 as campaign 20V810000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
