All recalls

Engine and engine coolingReported December 21, 2005 · 6,848 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain heavy duty trucks equipped with caterpillar diesel engines, the engine electrical ground cable that connects the engine block with the starter may be routed in a way that could cause chafing against the starter's positive battery cables.
Risk
If chafing occurs between the positive and negative cables, an electrical short may result and may cause a vehicle fire, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the engine ground cables for proper routing. If any chafing is found, the engine block ground cable will be replaced with a shorter (280mm) cable and any other damaged cables will be replaced and routed correctly free of charge. The recall began on december 21, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.

Recall number 05V567000 · Recall details

Trailer hitches: fifth wheel assemblyReported April 28, 2005 · 4,616 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain vehicles equipped with air operated fifth wheel slides and an msva 7-pack accessory controller, the 7-pack can allow water to contaminate its circuit board. This could result in inadvertent operation of the fifth wheel slide control.
Risk
If the slide control actuates while the vehicle is in motion, momentum from the trailer can cause the fifth wheel to slide without input from the driver, which could result in a crash without warning.
Remedy
Dealers will relocate the msva 7-pack to a less water intensive environment. A new msva 7-pack base, that has been improved to prevent water intrusion, and all air accessory solenoids will be installed free of charge. The recall began on august 5, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.

Recall number 05V188000 · Recall details

StructureReported December 3, 2004 · 17,443 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain trucks, the bolts that mount the front of the cab to the mounting brackets were not properly torqued at the manufacturing plant.
Risk
These bolts can loosen during normal vehicle use and fall out. This may lead to the cab separating from the vehicle's chassis during a vehicle crash that may result in property damage, personal injury or death.
Remedy
As an interim action, dealers will properly tighten the existing cab mounting bolts and replace any missing bolts. As soon as parts are available, dealers will replace all sixteen bolts and tighten them properly. An interim letter was sent to owners on february 11, 2005.
