Recall 03V-024: 2003 International 3200, 2003 International 4200 and 2 more
INTERNATIONAL TRUCK AND ENGINE recall for service brakes, hydraulic, reported to NHTSA on Jan 28, 2003, covering about 146 vehicles.
The problem
Certain school buses and heavy duty trucks built with hydraulic brakes and an air powered parking brake (Brake code 04gas) fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 105, "hydraulic and electric brake systems." the hydraulic brake monitor module was not installed on certain vehicles.
The risk
Without the brake monitor module, the brake warning light will not come on during the initial key-on cycle and will not come on to warn the operator if there is a loss of hydraulic pressure in the brake system, a loss of power steering flow, or if the emergency brake booster motor is not functioning.
The fix
Dealers will install the hydraulic brake monitor module. Owner notification is began during february 2003. 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.
Notes
International recall no. 03501. Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
