What is wrong

Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain model year 2015 IC Bus CE school buses manufactured May 13, 2014, to July 24, 2014. The Cummins ISB or ISL engines in these vehicles may have been equipped with Fleetguard UFF-XT fuel filters, part number FF63009, whose filter shell may separate from the fuel filter nut plate causing the engine to stall without warning.
