Electrical system
- What is wrong
- Navistar is recalling 51,588 heavy trucks, commercial buses and school buses manufactured between november 21, 2000 and may 21, 2008, equipped with one or more remote power modules. The potting material that encapsulates the circuit board of the vehicle's remote power module may not sufficiently seal the circuit board from water and contamination intrusion. If the encapsulation is compromised, water and contaminants may cause an internal electrical short, possibly resulting in a fire.
- Risk
- A fire could cause personal injury or death.
- Remedy
- Navistar will notify owners and repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began on july 10, 2008. Owners may contact navistar at 1‑280‑461‑1890.
Recall number 08V258000 · Recall details
Parking brake: conventional: air
- What is wrong
- International is recalling my 2008-2009 4000, 5000, 7000, 8000, 9000 and prostar tractor/trucks equipped with bendix mv-3 dash control valves. The molded valve body has an incorrect core pin in the injection mold causing the valve body to be oversized in the double check valve area. This condition can allow the rubber double check valve to become lodged in the body opening under certain circumstances.
- Risk
- If the double check valve becomes lodged, in the event of a primary reservoir failure, air pressure can leak past the lodged double check valve thereby depleting the secondary reservoir, causing reduced ability for modulating the service emergency brakes increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the bendix mv-3 dash control valves free of charge. The recall began on may 9, 2008. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.

Service brakes, air: controls: foot control/valve
- What is wrong
- On certain chassis, trucks, and tractors equipped with air brakes, the push rod that connects the brake pedal to the brake valve was manufactured incorrectly and could break under certain loading conditions.
- Risk
- If this push rod breaks while a vehicle is in operation, a partial loss of service braking may be experienced. This could result in a vehicle crash without warning.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the push rods free of charge. The recall began on june 3, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.
Recall number 05V241000 · Recall details
Wheels
- What is wrong
- On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks equipped with accuride aluminum wheels, the wheels were not properly pre-stressed. This allows cracks to develop over time.
- Risk

- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the wheels free of charge. The recall began on may 13, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.
Recall number 05V186000 · Recall details
Service brakes, air: supply: check valve
- What is wrong
- On certain heavy duty trucks equipped with bendix tc-7 trailer control hand-operated valve with push-to-connect fittings. The delivery port in the valve body may be partially blocked due to a problem during the moding process.
- Risk
- Such blockage may slow the delivery and exhaust of air to and from the trailer brakes when they are operated by this hand-operated trailer control valve.
- Remedy
- International will replace the hand-operated control valves. Owner notification began december 31, 2002.
