What is wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2014 International TranStar trucks manufactured in March 2013 and equipped with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G compressed natural gas engines (feature code 12CBA). Condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
What can happen
The improper operation of the sensor could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Cummins Inc. and Cummins Wesport Inc. will notify owners, and authorized Cummins service facilities will upload a new ECM calibration, free of charge. The recall began during April 2014. Owners may contact Cummins Inc. at 1-800-343-7357 or Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-5000.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
