1. 08V353000Received 30 Jul 2008. 24,975 units.

   Engine and Engine Cooling

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   Navistar is recalling 24,975 my 2003 through 2008 ic be, ce, hc, and re school and commercial buses and 2002 through 2008 international 3200 and 3300 model buses manufactured between september 21, 2001 through december 14, 2007, equipped with international vt365 engines. These vehicles may exhibit engine hard start, no start, or stall conditions due to possibly damaged terminals in the fuse holder connector of the injector drive module (idm) clean battery power circuits. The terminals may have been damaged during electrical continuity testing in the manufacturing process.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   These conditions could result in a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in personal injury.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Navistar will notify owners and replace the idm fuse holder free of charge. The recall began on october 3, 2008. Owners can contact navistar toll-free at 1-800-448-7825.

   Report filed by NAVISTAR, INC. Manufacturer campaign number 08506. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 3 Oct 2008.

2. 03V414000Received 22 Oct 2003. 924 units.

   Service Brakes, Air / Supply / Compressor

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   On certain trucks equipped with v8 engines and air brakes or air operated park brakes, a stand-off bracket was not installed. The bracket supports the copper air compressor discharge tube. Normal vehicle and engine vibration can cause the unsupported copper tube to fail at or near the air compressor connection.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   A failed compressor discharge tube could deplete the air system and may cause the parking brakes to apply. This condition could cause the vehicle to slow down or stop unexpectedly and result in a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will inspect and repair the stand-off bracket as necessary. Owner notification is expected to begin during december 2003. Owners should contact international truck at 1-800-448-7825.

   Report filed by INTERNATIONAL TRUCK & ENGINE CORPORATION. Manufacturer campaign number 03515. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 23 Jan 2004.

3. 03V062000Received 25 Feb 2003. 35,074 units.

   Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Foundation Components / Disc

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   On certain school and transit buses built with bosch zero offset pin slide (zops) hydraulic disc brakes, the zops hydraulic disc brakes may experience calipers sticking in the applied position, which can result in excessive or abnormal heat generation at one or more of the brakes.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   The combination of the following factors may collectively result in an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety: potential fire at a wheel end, high incident rates of stuck calipers, and evacuation and containment concerns relating to multiple passengers.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   International will notify its customers and repair the buses free of charge. The recall began october 29, 2004.

   Report filed by INTERNATIONAL TRUCK & ENGINE CORPORATION. Manufacturer campaign number 03502/04501. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 29 Oct 2004.

4. 02V260000Received 20 Sep 2002. 11,204 units.

   Parking Brake / Conventional

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   On certain medium and heavy duty trucks built with driveline parking brake codes 04gar, the parking brake assembly may not hold the vehicle in position when set. Factors contributing to this possibility are as follows: (1) cracked or broken cams; (2) loose or broken anchor bolts; (3) initial shoe diameter not set properly during assembly, which can lead to progressive component damage; (4) bent adjuster levers that cannot function; or (5) automatic adjuster cables that are disconnected.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   If the parking brake does not function properly, the vehicle could roll, without warning, after the parking brake lever has been set, increasing the risk of a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will replace the cam, lever, and bolt. Owner notification began december 30, 2002. 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 at 1-800-448-7825.

   Report filed by INTERNATIONAL TRUCK AND ENGINE. Manufacturer campaign number 02513. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 30 Dec 2002.

5. 02V204000Received 26 Jul 2002. 1,054 units.

   Engine and Engine Cooling / Engine

   Defect, in the NHTSA record

   On certain school buses and heavy duty trucks built with international vt365 engines and manufactured at international diesel of alabama. The injector driver modules (idm) built for the vt365 engines could have missing vibration damping/retention shells and a missing hot-melt process on the DC/DC boards.

   Consequence, in the NHTSA record

   The missing shells could allow the larger electronic components to become loose and possible break off inside the module during engine operation. Depending on what electrical component comes off, the effect on engine operation could result in rough running, loss of power, no start, or in the most severe case, immediate engine shut down without warning, increasing the risk of a crash.

   Remedy, in the NHTSA record

   Dealers will replace the idm modules. Owner notification began october 28, 2002. 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 at 1-800-448-7825.

   Report filed by INTERNATIONAL TRUCK AND ENGINE. Manufacturer campaign number 02508. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 21 Oct 2002.
