- What is wrong
- International is recalling 330 my 2008-2009 4000 series trucks and 3000 re, fbc, and sfc buses.

- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the front axle bearings and, if necessary, replace and/or properly lubricate the bearings. The recall began on may 23, 2008. Owners may contact international at 1‑800‑448‑7825.
