Navistar, Inc. reported this defect to federal regulators on Nov 16, 2015 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 60. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 International TranStar vehicles manufactured March 5, 2013, to December 12, 2014, equipped with certain Cummins Westport ISL G engines manufactured September 13, 2007, to September 23, 2015. These engines have a turbocharger oil supply line that may contact or interfere with the turbocharger inlet elbow, clean air intake clamp, or the air fuel control tube, and result in an oil leak.
The risk
If the turbocharger oil supply line oil leaks in the proximity of the engine exhaust manifold there would be an increased risk of a fire.
The remedy
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect for oil supply line interference or damage, eliminating the interference and replacing the oil supply line, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on November 23, 2015. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-331-332-1590, or Cummins customer service at 1-800-343-7357.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 15V755000.
