Recalls that may apply to the 1998 International 5000
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
| None found. |
| 2002113 | 2002-06-17. Brakes. On certain trucks the fitting that connects the double check valve to the rear axle air brake relay valve may break. If the fitting breaks the rear service brakes will cease to operate, resulting in an extended stopping distance, possibly resulting in a collision. |
|---|---|
| 2001211 | 2001-08-20. Electrical. Certain heavy duty trucks. In below freezing operating conditions, the air-pressure actuated brake light switch that is mounted outside the cab on the front cowl, may not activate during light to normal braking and could result in a failure of the brake lights to activate. If the brake lights fail to come on, there will be no lights to indicate to following vehicles that the vehicle is decelerating, which could result in a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace all air brake stop light switches. |
| 2000209 | 2000-09-28. Brakes. On certain vehicles, the ABS ECU misinterprets certain signals from wheel ends which can result in the temporary loss of braking capability on one or more wheel positions for several seconds. This response results from either an ABS cable that has chafed through the insulation and contacted a rotating part or a misaligned tone ring that has been damaged by contacting other components. Correction: ABS ECU will be replaced with a new ECU with upgraded software capable of detecting and properly responding to erroneous signals. |
| 2000186 | 2000-09-13. Electrical. On certain vehicles, moisture within the air brake system may collect inside the brake light and cruise control switches. If the moisture in the switches freezes, the brake lights may not function and the cruise control might not disengage when the brake pedal is depressed. Correction: The air manifold and switches will be re-mounted to a proven, trouble free, location. |
| 1999052 | 1999-03-31. Suspension. On certain vehicles, the radius on the cone of the inner wheel bearing was incorrectly machined resulting in improper seating of the cone against the seal flange of the steering knuckle. Improper seating of the bearing can increase the stress level on the steer axle knuckle spindle as well as bearing movement and excessive bearing end play. This can result in premature bearing wear, eventual fatigue failure of the axle spindle and loss of steering control. Correction: Inner wheel bearings will be inspected for proper seating and bearings that do not seat properly will be changed. The axle spindle and bearing cup will also be inspected for any damage and will be changed as required. |
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.
