What is wrong
NAVISTAR IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 WORKHORSE W22 AND R26 TRUCKS MANUFACTURED FROM FEBRUARY 5, 2007 THROUGH MAY 24, 2010.

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.
