- Summary
- Certain trucks equipped with holland/neway air suspension systems, a transverse beam casting may fracture under normal loads. If a casting breaks when the vehicle is traveling on a roadway there is the potential for pieces of the casting to become projectiles and the suspension's transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface.
- Consequence
- This will cause sparks that could potentially ignite and cause a fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect and replace the defective transverse beam assemblies free of charge. The recall began on July 8, 2005. Owners may contact international trucks at 1-800-448-7825.

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.
