4 recalls found in NHTSA data as of September 22, 2026

For the 2002 International 3000. These apply to the model and year, not to one particular vehicle: check your VIN to see whether yours is included and whether it has been repaired.

Has your International been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A International dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

2002 International 3000 recalls, newest first

June 5, 2008NHTSA 08V25800051,588 vehicles potentially affected

Electrical system

Summary
Navistar is recalling 51,588 heavy trucks, commercial buses and school buses manufactured between November 21, 2000 and may 21, 2008, equipped with one or more remote power modules. The potting material that encapsulates the circuit board of the vehicle's remote power module may not sufficiently seal the circuit board from water and contamination intrusion. If the encapsulation is compromised, water and contaminants may cause an internal electrical short, possibly resulting in a fire.
Consequence
A fire could cause personal injury or death.
Remedy
Navistar will notify owners and repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began on July 10, 2008. Owners may contact navistar at 1-280-461-1890.

June 3, 2004NHTSA 04V26900081,883 vehicles potentially affected

Service brakes, air › Antilock › Wheel speed sensor

Summary
On certain school buses and truck model vehicles manufactured between February 28, 1999, through April 5, 2004, the anti-lock brake system electronic control unit (ECU) may misinterpret a corrupt wheel speed signal.
Consequence
The corrupt wheel speed signals may improperly activate the ABS, instead of deactivating the ABS. This may result in the driver experiencing a hard pedal feel and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop, resulting in extended stopping distances which could cause a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
Remedy
International will notify its customers and inspect and repair the affected vehicles free of charge. The recall began August 1, 2004. 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 customer service at 1-800-327-4236.

Steering

Summary
On certain school, transit, and commercial buses equipped with adjustable steering columns, the steering shaft pinch bolt interferes with the rubber boot that protects it. Over time, a hole may wear into the boot and catch the bolt.
Consequence
If the bolt catches on the hole, the boot may restrict the movement of the steering wheel which could result in a vehicle crash.
Remedy
International notify its customers and inspect and, if necessary, repair the steering column. Owner notification began November 19, 2003. Owners should contact international at 1-800-448-7825.

May 20, 2002NHTSA 02V13500138,955 vehicles potentially affected

Service brakes, air › Supply › Check valve

Summary
On certain transit and school buses, a brass fitting connects the double check valve to the brake relay valve. With certain inputs to the vehicle, the weight of the check valve on the fitting can cause the assembly to resonate. The subject vibration can cause excessive strain levels in the fitting, which could eventually fatigue and fail.
Consequence
If the fitting breaks, the rear service brakes will cease to operate without warning, resulting in an extended stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will install a kit to remount the double check valve with a flexible hose on the amjority of vehicles. On a small number of units with clearance issues or traction control, a kit with a new relay valve that has a built-in double check valve will be installed. Owner notification began August 30, 2002. 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.
