Component: Parking Brake
Manufacturer: International Truck & Engine Corporation
Description:
On certain 6x4 or 6x6 trucks with air brakes or tractors with air brakes and equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
Consequencs:
This could delay or failure in applying the parking brakes which could result in a vehicle roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Notes:
International is working with bendix to repair these vehicles (please see 07e-037). bendix will install a check valve repair kit for the affected sr-7 spring brake modulating valve free of charge. the recall began on september 28, 2007. owners may contact bendix at 440-329-9000 and international at 1-800-448-7825.

Component: Suspension > Rear > Axle > Non-powered Axle Assembly
Manufacturer: International Truck & Engine Corporation
Description:
On certain trucks, one or both rear axle housings may contain thinner material than what is necessary for normal vehicle operation. over time, this thinner material may result in a fatigue failure of the rear axle housing, possibly in the location of the brake flange.
Consequencs:
A crack in the brake flange location of the rear axle housing may result in a wheel end lockup or wheel separation possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect the vehicle's rear axles and, if necessary, replace the axle housings. the recall began on may 18, 2007. owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7815.

Component: Fuel System, Diesel
Manufacturer: International Truck & Engine Corporation
Description:
On certain trucks equipped with davco fuel pro 382 heated fuel filters, when the key is in the 'on' position, the pre-heater, located in the fuel filter base, is energized.
Consequencs:
If this pre-heater is energized while maintenance is being performed on the fuel filter, diesel fuel could ignite within the filter housing. a fire within the fuel filter housing may spread possibly resulting in property damage or personal injury.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect the fuel filters and fuel heaters and, if necessary, will replace the fuel heater. the recall began on may 11, 2007. owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.

Component: Engine And Engine Cooling > Engine > Diesel
Manufacturer: International Truck & Engine Corporation
Description:
On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks built with cummins ism c876 engines, the electronic control module fails to recognize inputs of the vehicle electronic control unit or from a driver actuated dash switch thereby increasing the risk of unintended (or unexpected) elevated exhaust temperatures.
Consequencs:
While this condition does not involve a risk of fire in the vehicle itself, it could present a fire hazard in a situation where the vehicle's exhaust is in close proximity to materials or substances that can melt, burn, or explode.
Notes:
Cummins, in conjunction with international, will conduct the remedy campaign. cummins will install new ecm software. owners can contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or international at 1-800-448-7825.
