“Navistar 2024-2025 International Trucks: Steering Control Risk.” GovInfoNow, updated September 23, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/81763-navistar-2024-2025-international-trucks-steering-control-risk. Based on NHTSA recall #24V088000 (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=24V088000).

Why it’s dangerous

The steering gear assemblies might have fewer recirculating balls than required during assembly. This can cause the steering to become unresponsive, increasing the risk of losing control and crashing, especially at higher speeds or during sudden maneuvers.

Who’s affected

Owners of 2024 International HX, LT, RH trucks and 2024-2025 International HV, MV trucks and 2024 IC Bus CE buses are affected. Commercial truck drivers and bus operators face the highest risk due to the critical nature of steering control.

How to tell if you have this one

Check if your vehicle is a 2024 International HX, LT, or RH truck, or a 2024-2025 International HV, MV truck, or 2024 IC Bus CE. The recall was notified to owners via mail on September 30, 2024.
