Issue

A problem with the engine-block heater cable or the terminals that connect the heater cable to the block heater could cause a short circuit. Note: This problem only affects trucks equipped with a International diesel 6.6 litre engine and the optional engine-block heater cable.

Safety risk

A short circuit could cause damage to engine components and create the risk of a fire.

Corrective actions

Stop use of your engine-block heater immediately. The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the block heater with a redesigned part. Do not use your engine-block heater until the repairs are performed.
