Recall 08V-146: Suspension

Reported Mar 26, 2008 · 330 vehicles affected · INTERNATIONAL TRUCK & ENGINE CORPORATION

Problem: International is recalling 330 my 2008-2009 4000 series trucks and 3000 re, fbc, and sfc buses. A manufacturing defect in the subassembly of the front axle wheel hubs resulted in the bearings being inadequately lubricated. This condition could cause the front axle bearings to overheat which can result in bearing spalling, seizing, or related damage.

Risk: Such damage may result in wheel lockup or front wheel separation on the highway with little or no warning to the driver, which could result in a crash.

Fix: Dealers will inspect the front axle bearings and, if necessary, replace and/or properly lubricate the bearings. The recall began on may 23, 2008. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
