Navistar Recalls International 4300 Trucks Due to Park Feature Defect

Navistar is recalling certain 2010-2011 International 4300 trucks because the reverse idler shaft may bind the park feature, allowing the vehicle to move unexpectedly.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect where the vehicle can move without warning, posing a risk of personal injury or a crash, but no injuries or deaths are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Navistar, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2010 and 2011 International brand trucks manufactured between January 13, 2009, and May 10, 2010. These vehicles are equipped with certain Eaton hybrid transmissions that include a park feature. The recall affects 1,642 vehicles.

The defect involves the reverse idler shaft potentially contacting the park feature, causing the two components to bind. This binding prevents the park feature from engaging properly. If the park feature does not engage, the vehicle can move without warning, which may result in personal injury or a crash.

Navistar will notify owners, and the remedy will be performed by Eaton Corporation free of charge. The safety recall began on May 31, 2010. Owners may contact Navistar at 1-260-461-1890 or Eaton at 1-800-826-4357 or 1-269-342-3242 for more information.
