2012 INTERNATIONAL PAYSTAR Complaints and Recall Information
The 2012 INTERNATIONAL PAYSTAR has 0 complaints and 5 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to brake system components and electrical system wiring as highlighted in the recall details.
There are five recalls involving various components such as the electrical system and service brakes. These recalls address risks including potential vehicle fires, brake malfunctions, and increased crash risk due to component failures.
Recalls- Alternator wiring. Recall 12V196000 affects 19,264 vehicles. The alternator cable can rub against the high-pressure power steering hose causing insulation chafing and an electrical short. This may lead to a fire causing property damage, injury, or death. Navistar installs a standoff bracket to improve wire routing free of charge.
- Alternator cable chafing. Recall 11V426000 affected 5,663 vehicles with the same defect as 12V196000. This earlier recall was superseded by 12V196000.
- Trailer ABS indicator. Recall 11V252000 affects 2,543 vehicles where the trailer ABS fault indicator lamp fails to illuminate due to ECU programming or hardware issues. Drivers may remain unaware of ABS faults, increasing crash risk. Dealers will reprogram or replace the ECU at no cost.
- Brake relay valve leakage. Recall 12V052000 applies to 17,867 vehicles equipped with Bendix ATR-6 valves that may leak internally in cold conditions. This can cause continuous brake application, overheating brakes, fire, loss of vehicle control, and no warning lights. Dealers provide a temporary repair until a permanent remedy is available.
- S-cam brake bracket fractures. Recall 14V064000 affects 1,196 vehicles with fracture-prone S-cam brackets causing inoperative brakes or uneven braking force that increases crash risk. Dealers will replace assemblies with reinforced components free of charge.
Owners facing repeated repairs or unresolved recall issues on the 2012 INTERNATIONAL PAYSTAR may want to review their rights under state lemon laws for vehicles with ongoing safety defects.
