Altec Industries, Inc. has received notification from an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) that a condition exists relating to motor vehicle safety, compliance, or emissions in a vehicle you possess that is equipped with Altec equipment. Navistar has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2017 thru 2020 DuraStar and WorkStar model trucks built 01/19/2016 thru 12/20/2019, 2016 and 2017 TranStar model trucks built 12/14/2015 thru 04/12/2016, 2017 thru 2019 ProStar model trucks built 01/13/2016 thru 03/02/2018, 2018 and 2019 LoneStar series trucks built 07/13/2017 thru 02/08/2018, and 2018 and 2019 HC commercial buses built on 08/07/2017 thru 10/25/2018. The Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system blower motor circuit may have been built with a wire terminal that does not meet the electrical current requirements for the blower motor circuit. This can cause overheating that may melt the plastic material of the fuse block for the HVAC circuit and subsequent damage of the surrounding area of the Power Distribution Module (PDM) and/or dash panels.

Reading this report

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
