Recalls that may apply to the 1998 International 3800

A recall listed here may apply to a vehicle of this year, make and model. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle: check the VIN with the official lookups.

20030532003-02-28. Brakes. On certain vehicles, the Bosch Zero Offset Pin Slide (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. In bus applications, 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. Correction: Dealer will affect repairs.
19990251999-02-22. Steering. On certain vehicles, the tie rod end can pull outboard and separate from the tie rod tube due to improper thread engagement between the male tie rod end and the female tube. A separation of the tie rod end could result in loss of steering control and a possible crash. Correction: The complete tie rod assembly will be replaced on involved vehicles.
19982241998-11-13. Fuel System. On certain vehicels, a fuel leak could occur during normal operation because of over crimping of the hose end fittings on the hose from the regulator to the left head and the hose from the fuel transfer pump to the regulator. Should a fuel leak occur on a hot engine, a fire could result. Correction: Fuel hoses will be replaced with properly crimped hoses.
19982221998-11-13. Fuel System. On certain vehicles, the high pressure oil line for the fuel injection system that goes from the high pressure oil pump to the right cylinder head can abrade and fail due to rubbing on the charge air cooler crossover pipe. This would result in a sudden loss of oil and if the vehicle is being operated at the time, the engine could have a sudden loss of power without warning, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and a convoluted hose will be placed over undamaged hoses. Damaged hoses will be replaced and a convoluted hose will be added.
19981951998-09-29. Brakes. On certain vehicles, the transmission flange, parking brake drum and transmission yoke are connected by eight bolts. If the brake drum or transmission yoke are not properly seated when the bolts are installed, subsequent driveline torque applied to the joint will cause the mating parts to fully seat, resulting in loose bolts. Loose bolts can eventually work out or shear resulting in the drum and driveshaft separating from the vehicle which could potentially cause vehicle damage or personal injury or both. Correction: Vehicles will have the torque inspected and be retorqued to specification.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
