2020 International MV recalls
Brake fluid leak can cause electrical short and fire

Brake fluid leak can cause electrical short and fire risk
A brake pressure switch assembly may leak brake fluid into its electrical components, which can cause an electrical short-circuit in the switch.
Back-Up Lights May Be Hard to See, Raising Crash Risk
Certain International heavy trucks, covering a range of model years, may have back-up lights that are hard to see when the vehicle is in reverse or in bobtail mode (driving without a trailer).
Parking Brake May Fail to Hold During PTO Use
A software error in the Body Control Module on certain International HV, RH, MV, and HX trucks may allow the vehicle to overcome the parking brake while the power-take-off (PTO) is operating.
Fuel rail leak can cause fire in commercial trucks and buses
A sealing washer on the high-pressure fuel rail may not seat correctly in its bore holes, which can allow diesel fuel to leak from the fuel rail assembly.
Engine can overpower parking brake, risking unexpected movement
On certain International DuraStar and WorkStar trucks, the engine control software may allow the engine to rev while the parking brake is applied, if the automatic transmission is in drive or reverse and the stationary PTO switch is engaged.
Diesel Fuel Heater May Overheat, Melt and Catch Fire
The electric fuel heater inside the fuel module on certain diesel trucks and buses with Cummins B6.7 engines may overheat.
Engaging PTO can make truck roll despite parking brake
On certain International trucks, if the parking brake is set and the automatic transmission is in Drive or Reverse, engaging the stationary PTO switch can cause engine RPM to ramp up.
Fuel heater can overheat, melt, and cause a fire or engine stall
The electric fuel heater inside the fuel module can overheat, causing plastic in the heater to melt.
