International DURASTAR in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. International DURASTAR is named on 9 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The American register

A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

A fuel heater that overheats could create the risk of a fire. This could also cause the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash.Corrective Actions:
Cummins will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Cummins service location to install a new fuel heater and correct the wiring to the fuel heater. Additionally, the fuel heater fuse will be changed to a 30 amp fuse, and the fuse size information in the owner’s manual will be updated.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the International Durastar, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on an International: 314 in the register, and 594 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2019.
