STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR
- The defect
- Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2022-2023 IC CE, IC RE and 2023 IC 1300FBC transit buses. The steering wheel retaining nut may have been tightened incorrectly, which can allow the steering wheel to loosen and detach from the steering column shaft.
- What it can cause
- A loose or detached steering wheel increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Owners are advised not to drive their vehicles until the repair has been performed. Dealers will remove the steering wheel nut, apply thread locker, and reinstall the nut, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 2022. Owners may contact Navistar, Inc. customer service at 1-331- 332-1590. Navistar number for this recall is 22512.
- 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.nhtsa.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 128 vehicles this is a small campaign: 67% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
IC Bus vehicles have been recalled over the steering 3 times before this, most recently in September 2017 as 17V580000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 23V397000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 23V370000 (service brakes, air), 23V066000 (structure), 22V910000 (suspension).
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.
