STEERING:GEAR BOX:SHAFT SECTOR
- The defect
- Navistar, Inc. (Navistar) is recalling certain 2025 International HV, HX, LT, and MV vehicles. The steering gear sector shaft may have been improperly heat-treated, which can cause the gear teeth to crack or fracture.
- What it can cause
- Fractured steering gear teeth can cause a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the steering gears, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 30, 2024. Owners may contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825. Navistar's number for this recall is 24505.
- 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 272 vehicles this is a small campaign: 57% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
International vehicles have been recalled over the steering 16 times before this, most recently in February 2024 as 24V088000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 16 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V459000 (electrical system), 25V817000 (electrical system), 25V806000 (service brakes, air), 25V781000 (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 February 29, 2024 as campaign 24V164000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
