The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Autocar is recalling certain 2016-2023 ACX (Xpeditor) and 2020-2023 DC (Legend) vehicles. The park brake warning light may incorrectly illuminate during an air loss event. As such, these trucks fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays." A park brake warning light that illuminates incorrectly increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 10,894 units are affected by the recall.
- Knapheide Manufacturing Company is recalling certain 2022-2023 GM 2500HD, 2022 RAM 3500, Ford F-250, F-350, F-550, and 2023 GM 3500 vehicles equipped with certain Warn Industries VR EVO winches with a wireless handheld remote. Water may enter the handheld remote control for the winch and cause circuit board corrosion, which can allow the winch to operate unintentionally. A winch that operates unintentionally increases the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 38 units are affected by the recall.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2019-2023 LR battery electric trucks. The power cables that connect to the windscreen heater relay may have a loose connection and cause the relay to fail. A relay that fails in the closed position will continue to power the cabin heater, overheating the relay and increasing the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 47 units are affected by the recall.
- Navistar is recalling certain 2016 and 2018-2024 IC Bus CE school buses. The brake pressure switch assembly may leak brake fluid into the brake pressure switch's electrical components and cause an electrical short-circuit. An electrical short in the brake pressure switch can overheat the circuit and increase the risk of a fire while driving or parked. NHTSA says potentially 15,398 units are affected by the recall.
- Navistar is recalling certain 2016 International DuraStar, 2018-2020 and 2023-2024 International 1300FBC Stripped chassis, 2019-2022 IC Bus CE Commercial bus, 2019-2024 IC Bus TC Commercial bus, and 2019-2024 International MV vehicles. The brake pressure switch assembly may leak brake fluid into the brake pressure switch's electrical components and cause an electrical short-circuit. An electrical short in the brake pressure switch can overheat the circuit and increase the risk of a fire while driving or parked. NHTSA says potentially 6,786 units are affected by the recall.
- Triple E Recreational Vehicles is recalling certain 2023 Unity U24MB, U24cB, U24FX, U24MBL, U24RL, U24TB, and Wonder W24FTB, W24MBL, W24RL, W24RTB motorhomes. The 2-stage regulator may be improperly crimped, which can cause a gas leak. A gas leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 212 units are affected by the recall.
- Volvo Trucks North America is recalling certain 2019-2023 VNR Electric vehicles. The power cables that connect to the windscreen heater relay may have a loose connection and cause the relay to fail. A relay that fails in the closed position will continue to power the cabin heater, overheating the relay and increasing the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 243 units are affected by the recall.
- Volvo Trucks North America is recalling certain 2022-2024 VNL and VHD vehicles equipped with RollTek driver seats. A missing circuit will prevent the side air bag from deploying during a crash. An air bag that does not deploy, increases the risk of an injury. NHTSA says potentially 29 units are affected by the recall.
- Wabash National Corporation is recalling certain 2024 DVDBHPC and DVCVHPC dry van trailers. The king pin was not welded properly, which can result in the king pin detaching within the upper coupler. Unintentional movement of a detached king pin may cause a loss of trailer control, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 40 units are affected by the recall.
