Recalls that may apply to the 2002 International 4200

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.

By component

United States: NHTSA, as of 2026-10-19
03V4140002003-10-22. SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:COMPRESSOR. 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. Built 2002-10-01 to 2003-09-15.
03V3170002003-08-27. SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:SUPPLY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS. CERTAIN HEAVY DUTY TRUCKS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, "AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS." THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY AIR SUPPLY HOSES FROM THE FOOT VALVE TO THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY AIR TANKS WERE IMPROPERLY ROUTED AT THE TANK. Built 2001-02-19 to 2003-07-22.
03V0620002003-02-25. SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC. 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. Built 1997-04-01 to 2002-06-03.
02V2600002002-09-20. PARKING BRAKE:CONVENTIONAL. 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. Built 2000-11-16 to 2002-04-19.
02V2040002002-07-26. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE. 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. Built 2001-09-21 to 2002-06-26.
02V0950002002-03-22. STEERING:LINKAGES:DRAG:LINK:CONNECTION. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE COTTER PIN THAT GOES THROUGH THE DRAG LINK BALL STUD AT THE CONNECTION TO THE PITMAN ARM IS MISSING. THIS PIN PREVENTS THE CASTLE NUT FROM LOOSENING. Built 2002-01-25 to 2002-01-31.
02V0940002002-03-22. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:STARTER ASSEMBLY. CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH ENGINE STARTERS (CODE 08WWN OR 08WWP) BUILT BY LEECE-NEVILLE. THESE STARTERS HAVE A DEFECTIVE TERMINAL ADAPTER STUD. THE STUD IS USED ONLY AT THE POSITIVE BATTERY CONNECTION TO THE STARTER SOLENOID. IT WAS DESIGNED TO BE SCREWED ON OVER THE EXISTING STUD TO INCREASE THE STUD DIAMETER TO ACCOMMODATE THE LARGER SIZE OF THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE TERMINAL. THE ADAPTER STUD WAS WEAKENED WHEN THE HOLE WAS DRILLED TOO DEEP. Built 2001-12-17 to 2002-01-03.

20032552003-10-22. Brakes. On certain vehicles, a stand-off bracket that supports the copper air compressor discharge tube was not installed. Normal vehicle and engine vibration can cause the unsupported copper tube to fail at or near the air compressor connection. A failed compressor discharge tube could deplete the air system and may cause the parking brakes to apply. Even though the air pressure gauge and low air pressure warning buzzer would give warning, this condition could cause the vehicle to slow down or stop unexpectedly and could cause a vehicle collision that may result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealer will inspect and repair with a new stand-off bracket as necessary.
20032002003-08-24. Brakes. On certain vehicles, the primary and secondary air supply hoses from the foot valve to the air tanks were reversed at the tanks. If the primary air circuit is damaged, the brakes will not apply when the brake pedal is depressed, potentially causing a vehicle crash without warning and possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealer will inspect all suspect vehicles and repair incorrect air plumbing.
20021832002-10-09. Brakes. On certain vehicles, 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; 5. Automatic adjuster cables that are disconnected. If this parking brake does not function properly, the vehicle may begin to roll, without warning, after the parking brake lever has been set and could cause an accident, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the cam, lever and bolt on all affected vehicles.
20021392002-07-25. Engine. Certain trucks equipped with VT365 engines may have defective Injector Driver Modules which could result in loss of power or stalling. Correction: Dealers will replace the module.
20020562002-03-22. Steering. On certain trucks the cotter pin that goes through the drag link ball stud at the connection to the pitman arm is missing. This pin prevents the castellated nut from loosening. If the nut loosens and comes completely off the drag link ball stud, the drag link could detach resulting in a loss of steering control. Correction: Dealers will inspect the vehicle and have a cotter pin installed if found to be missing.
20020552002-03-22. Engine. Certain trucks equipped with engine starters (code 08wwn or 08wwp) built by Leece-Neville. These starters have a defective terminal adapter stud. The stud is used only at the positive battery connection to the starter solenoid. It was designed to be screwed on over the existing stud to increase the stud diameter to accommodate the larger size of the positive battery cable terminal. The adapter stud was weakened when the hole was drilled too deep. This could lead to a direct electrical short to the batteries. If the stud breaks off, the positive battery cable could short directly to ground, which can generate heat and sparks causing a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the adapter stud.

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.
