⚠️ What's wrong

Maintainer Corporation of Iowa, Inc. (Maintainer) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Service/Mechanics Bodies mounted on International MV607 vehicles. The crane mounting bolts are not long enough to securely attach the crane to the crane mount.

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.)
