Chronology :
- 10/19/2022 – Navistar
Engineering meets with Compliance and discusses review of back-up light configurations for future designs. - 12/15/2022 – Navistar
Engineering, Compliance, and Custom Engineering meet and based on current data collected, determine to expand the review to include all prior back-up light design releases. There are 44 different back-up light options. - 12/16/2022 – Navistar
revised order coding to block suspect feature code 01VAL until all back-up light feature codes could be investigated. No trucks with feature code 01VAL have been built since September 2020.
Investigation into all backup-configurations continues. - 02/03/2023 – Navistar
Engineering, Compliance, and Customer Engineering meet to review the results of the investigation to date and determine feature codes 01WPL, 01WPS, and 01VAL may not meet FMVSS 108 visibility requirements and will require additional investigation. - 03/13/2023 – Navistar
completes development of a CAD template that can be used to verify FMVSS 108 is met. The CAD template allows for a constant method to verify the design. - 03/20/2023 through 03/27/2023 – Navistar
inspects two customer specific suspect vehicles with feature code 01VAL to verify they were built according to design. Both vehicles were determined to be modified after they left Navistar
’s assembly plant with the pintle hook moved to the lower position. - 04/25/2023 – Navistar
Engineering, Compliance, Regulatory Compliance, and Custom Engineering meet review the results of the two vehicles investigated and determines to verify the two remaining suspect feature codes. - 05/10/2023 – Navistar
determines the build range is from 2000 through 2020. - 05/11/2023 – Navistar
