Issue

Issue:
On certain trucks, the battery ground cables that connect to the vehicle frame could overheat. If this happens, the battery post could separate and cause a loss of electrical power. As a result, the engine could shut off suddenly.

Safety Risk:
Overheated battery ground cables could create a burn risk. A loss of power while driving could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Navistar will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealership to replace the alternator positive and ground cables. The dealer will also reroute the alternator ground connection from the frame rail to the starter.
