International recall: Steering
What is wrong
Navistar is recalling certain model year 2011 international 7300, 7400, and 7500 vehicles manufactured from june 30, 2010, through october 13, 2010. These vehicles were built with an incorrect steering system draglink.
What could happen
Drivers may experience degraded steering feel and control, increasing the risk of a crash possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
The fix
Dealers will replace the steering draglink and pitman arm and will also inspect the steering arm for damage and replace if necessary. This service will be performed free of charge. All the affected vehicles have been repaired, therefore an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact navistar at 1-800-448-7825.
