SUSPENSION:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2021-2022 International CV, 2022-2023 International HV, 2023 IC 1300 FBC, CE, RE, TC, International MV, HX, LT, RH, and LoneStar vehicles. The hex flange lock nuts, used in the suspension and steering joints, were improperly heat treated and may lose tension over time.
- What it can cause
- A loss of tension in the steering and suspension joints may lead to steering instability and increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the hex flange lock nuts as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed January 20, 2023. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 22524.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 25,822 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 85% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
International vehicles have been recalled over the suspension 13 times before this, most recently in August 2020 as 20V494000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 48 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V459000 (electrical system), 26V168000 (structure), 26V111000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 25V817000 (electrical system).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Navistar, Inc. with NHTSA on November 23, 2022 as campaign 22V869000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
