The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports on its Web site that International Truck and Engine Corporation is recalling 34,993 MY 2006-2008 school and transit buses along with heavy duty trucks.
The recalled vehicles have the potential to catch fire in extreme cases, according to NHTSA.
The vehicles were manufactured between June 1, 2006 and June 28, 2007 and are equipped with International DT466 or DT570 engines.
The oil cooler base plate in the busses and trucks may crack, allowing pressurized oil to leak into the engine compartment.
