- The defect
- Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2023 International HV and 2023-2024 International MV vehicles. The rear axle spring wedge shim may have been incorrectly installed, which can cause U-joint failure and result in driveshaft separation.
- What it can cause
- Driveshaft separation can cause a loss of drive power and increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will reinstall the rear axle wedge shim, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 28, 2023. Owners may contact Navistar's customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 23505.
- 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 .
| Vehicle | Model years | Safety record |
|---|---|---|

| InternationalMV | 2023 to 2024 | Not published here |
How this campaign compares
At 660 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 54% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
International vehicles have been recalled over the power train 17 times before this, most recently in April 2020 as 20V229000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 21 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V459000 (electrical system), 25V817000 (electrical system), 25V502000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 25V178000 (service brakes, air).
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 March 8, 2023 as campaign 23V153000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
