2007–2008 International 7600 recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain trucks equipped with split shaft style power take off (pto), the bolts that attach the drive shaft flanges to the split shaft pto may loosen and allow the drive shaft to separate from the vehicle.
💥 The risk
Drive shaft separation may happen without warning and could possibly get into the path of other vehicles on the highway, causing property damage, personal injury or death.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace and properly tighten the split shaft pto flange mounting bolts free of charge. The recall began on october 30, 2007. 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.)
