NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V588
Manufacturer Navistar
, Inc.
Components ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Potential Number of Units Affected 26,288
Fuel Line may Burst if Filter Screen Clogs
If the fuel line bursts, fuel may leak onto the road resulting in a roadway hazard for other motorists. The engine may also stall without warning, resulting in the vehicle’s inability to restart, increasing the risk of a crash.
Summary
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2017-2018 International ProStar and 9900i trucks, 2018-2019 International LT trucks, 2017-2019 International LoneStar and HX trucks and 2017 International PayStar trucks, equipped with Cummins ISX15 or X15 diesel engines. In certain driving conditions, such as on a long down-hill grade, the fuel line may burst if the fuel pump cooling circuit screen becomes restricted.

- EVERYDAY TREATMENT: Keep your diesel engine in top condition with our EDT that is designed to improve performance & maintain engine health. With regular use, you can ensure your engine runs smoothly & efficiently giving you peace of mind on the road.
- BOOST FUEL ECONOMY: Enhance your vehicle performance with our diesel additive that boosts cetane levels by up to 7 points resulting in better fuel economy & reduced maintenance costs. Say goodbye to poor acceleration & frequent trips to the mechanic.
- FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER: Cleans both internal & external injector deposits, enhances the lubricity of fuel to safeguard the fuel system components, such as the pump & injectors to increase engine longevity while also acting as a fuel system cleaner.
- PREVENTS RUST & CORROSION: While demulsifying moisture & adding stability to fuel by preventing oxidation & degradation, it also provides a reliable solution for protecting fuel systems from the damaging effects of rust & corrosion.
- EASY TO USE: Use at every fill-up, 1 oz. or 2oz. (for more cetane and lubricity boost) for every 25 gallons of diesel, this product is easy to use! Just pour it into your diesel fuel tank during your next fill up.

- EASY USE AT EVERY FILL-UP: Add directly to the fuel tank at each fill-up. The long neck and measuring chamber make treating fuel simple. One 40 oz bottle treats up to 400 gallons
- FOR ALL DIESEL ENGINES: Suitable for use in all diesel vehicles and equipment - light-duty, heavy-duty, pickup, SUV, van, RV, etc. (including modern HPCR systems)
- IMPROVES LUBRICITY (ASTM D6079): Tested to improve lubricity by 43% to help protect fuel system components, including wear-sensitive parts like the CP4 pump
- BOOSTS CETANE UP TO +8: Raises cetane up to 8 points for faster ignition, smoother combustion, and improved drivability; many engines run best around 48–50 while pump diesel is often 40–45
- CLEANS INJECTORS: AR6500's detergent package removes injector deposits and restores spray patterns for improved atomization, supporting better performance and fuel economy
- TWO-STEP FUEL SYSTEM RESET: Includes AR6400-D Diesel Fuel System Cleaner + AR6500 Diesel Treatment (40 oz) for a complete clean-and-maintain solution
- HOW IT WORKS: Use AR6400-D first for a deep clean (12 oz treats 30-40 gallons), then use AR6500 at every fill-up for ongoing protection (40 oz treats up to 400 gallons)
- FOR ALL DIESEL ENGINES: Suitable for all diesel vehicles and equipment, including modern HPCR systems
- CLEANS INJECTORS & RESTORES RESPONSE: Removes injector deposits and restores spray patterns for smoother running, improved response, and more efficient combustion
