    Electrical System

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    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.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    A fire could cause personal injury or death.

  2. 04V269000Received . 81,883 units.

    Service Brakes, Air / Antilock / Wheel Speed Sensor

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain school buses and truck model vehicles manufactured between february 28, 1999, through april 5, 2004, the anti-lock brake system electronic control unit (ECU) may misinterpret a corrupt wheel speed signal.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    The corrupt wheel speed signals may improperly activate the ABS, instead of deactivating the ABS. This may result in the driver experiencing a hard pedal feel and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop, resulting in extended stopping distances which could cause a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    International will notify its customers and inspect and repair the affected vehicles free of charge. The recall began august 1, 2004. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact international customer service at 1-800-327-4236.

    Steering

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain school, transit, and commercial buses equipped with adjustable steering columns, the steering shaft pinch bolt interferes with the rubber boot that protects it. Over time, a hole may wear into the boot and catch the bolt.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the bolt catches on the hole, the boot may restrict the movement of the steering wheel which could result in a vehicle crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    International notify its customers and inspect and, if necessary, repair the steering column. Owner notification began november 19, 2003. Owners should contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
