For the 2005 International 4000. 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.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

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.

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.

Exterior lighting › Hazard flashing warning lights › Switch

Summary: Certain 2005 my international 3300, 4000, and ce school and transit buses manufactured between may 24 and August 17, 2004. The left turn signal light and indicator light on the instrument panel may not illuminate during hazard operation due to an incorrectly manufactured switch contact that causes intermittent contact in the turn signal stalk assembly. This results in intermittent left turn signal and indicator light operation when the hazard switch is activated.
Consequence: Intermittent light operation reduces the ability to warn other motorist of the driver's intentions. This could cause a vehicle crash without warning that may result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
Remedy: International will notify its customers and replace the turn signal stalk assemblies free of charge. The recall began November 10, 2004. If parts do not become available within 60 days of this report, an interim notice will be sent to dealers and owners informing them that this recall exists. 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 (we do not yet have a telephone number for this recall.)
