On certain vehicles built with Bostrum driver seat models (910, 910C, or 914) and with International's parking brake code 04036. If someone outside the cab adjusts/slides the driver's seat to its most forward position, with the parking brake set, the seat will contact and release the parking brake lever. This could cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly and possibly result in an accident. Correction: A stop-bracket will be installed on the seat track to limit the travel of the seat so that it can not release the parking brake lever when the seat is adjusted to its most forward position. This is an expansion of recall 01-088.
On certain vehicles, the tie rod end can pull outboard and separate from the tie rod tube due to improper thread engagement between the male tie rod end and the female tube. A separation of the tie rod end could result in loss of steering control and a possible crash. Correction: The complete tie rod assembly will be replaced on involved vehicles.
THE DOUBLE NEUTRAL SHIFT CONTROL LEVER MAY BIND AS THE DRIVER ATTEMPTS TO PUT THE LEVER IN THE PARK POSITION. IF THIS OCCURS THE LEVER DOES NOT ACTUALLY REACH THE FULL PARK POSITION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A FALSE PARK CONDITION. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE VEHICLE ROLLING IF PARKED ON AN INCLINE. CORRECTION: THE DOUBLE SHIFT CONTROL WILL BE REPLACED WITH A REDESIGNED SHIFT CONTROL AND A FINAL ADJUSTMENT WILL BE MADE TO THE CABLE AFTER THE NEW SHIFT CONTROL IS INSTALLED.
THE CAM LEVER ON THE POWERED APPLY BRAKE CAN MOVE FORWARD BECAUSE OF A HOLE IN THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTING BOSS WAS DRILLED TOO DEEP, ALLOWING THE CAM LEVER TO BECOME DISENGAGED FROM THE PARKING BRAKE SHOES. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE DRIVER WOULD HAVE NO WARNING THAT THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT APPLIED. THIS COULD RESULT IN VEHICLE ROLL AWAY AND A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT. CORRECTION: SHIMS WILL BE INSTALLED IN THE DRILLED AREA OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION PARK BRAKE PIVOT PIN HOLE.
