High riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Workhorse - Navistar. On certain vehicles, a weld on the passenger side exhaust down pipe may fatigue and separate. This could result in hot exhaust gases being released into the engine bay, which could increase the risk of a vehicle fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and replace any down pipe found to be cracked. Support brackets will be installed to both exhaust downpipes, along with a catalyst spacer bar, to prevent sway between movement and resulting fatigue. Published 2014-09-26.
