What is wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2021-2022 IC Bus CE school buses.

In certain cases, an electrical short may occur which would render the unit inoperable.
What can happen
If the sign performance is inhibited, or completely inoperable, it can reduce the visibility for oncoming drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the LED illuminated school bus signs, free of charge. The recall began December 15, 2020. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825.
