NHTSA's recall notice
As NHTSA's recall record states it for campaign 06V378000.
Defect description
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH VT-275 ENGINES, THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR OF THE INJECTION PRESSURE REGULATOR (IPR) VALVE ON THE ENGINE CAN FILL WITH RAIN WATER AND ROAD DEBRIS, POSSIBLY CAUSING TERMINAL CORROSION THAT MAY LEAD TO ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE DROPS.
Safety consequence
IF THIS OCCURS, ERRATIC BEHAVIOR OF THE IPR VALVE CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. IF AN ENGINE SHUTDOWN OCCURS, THE VEHICLE MAY BECOME STRANDED ON A ROADWAY. THIS MAY LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Manufacturer remedy
DEALERS WILL INSPECT FOR CORROSION AND IF A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT IS PRESENT, THE CONNECTOR WILL BE REMOVED AND A NEW, SEALED CONNECTOR INSTALLED. IF NO CORROSION IS PRESENT, THE CONNECTOR WILL BE CLEANED, FILLED WITH DIELECTRIC GREASE AND COVERED WITH A PROTECTIVE WRAP THAT WILL PREVENT FUTURE CORROSION OF THE CONNECTOR TERMINALS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 9, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT INTERNATIONAL AT 1-800-448-7825.
