⚠️ What's wrong
On certain 4X2 and 6X4 heavy duty trucks, the positive battery cable between the batteries and the starter may rub against an electrical ground cable between the starter and frame rail.
💥 The risk
This chafing could cause an electrical short and/or fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the vehicles to determine if any chafing has occurred between positive and negative cables. If there is no evidence of chafing, then a saddle clamp will be installed to ensure cables will not rub. If there is evidence of chafing, the damaged cables will be replaced and the swivel saddle clamp installed. The recall began on august 22, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
