2021 International LT & 2021 International RH recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2021 International LT and International RH vehicles. The spring inside the spring brake chamber may allow the pressure plate to shift and wear a hole through the diaphragm.
💥 The risk
A hole in the diaphragm may cause an air leak, causing the parking brake to engage and increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Navistar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace the spring brake chambers, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 28, 2021. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 21502.
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.)
