- Summary
- Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with dana/sprague windshield wiper assemblies. The knurled pivot shaft (which operates the windshield wiper arm) is welded to a lever, which connects to linkage from the wiper motor. The weld at the pivot shaft to lever can fail.
- Consequence
- Should a failure occur during inclement weather on the driver's side while the vehicle is in motion, the operator's vision would be partially obscured.
- Remedy

Has your Navistar been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Navistar dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
