International truck calipers can contact suspension stopping the outer brake pad

International is recalling certain 2019-2025 HV, MV and Workstar 7400 trucks because the caliper may contact a suspension spring or axle U-bolt and prevent the outer brake pad functioning.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 4 covers structural vehicle defects: physical interference between the caliper and suspension disables one brake pad on a heavy truck, and the remedy is hardware replacement.

Plain-English summary

International Motors, LLC is recalling certain 2024 HV, 2020-2025 MV and 2019 Workstar 7400 trucks. About 153 units are potentially affected.

The caliper may contact a suspension spring or axle U-bolt and prevent the outer brake pad from functioning.

NHTSA states that a loss of outer brake pad function can extend the vehicle's stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will switch the left and right rear air disc brake calipers, replace the rear brake torque plates and replace the brake pads, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 12, 2025. Owners may contact International customer service, or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
