International MV Recall 23V154: Battery Box May Detach, Creating a Crash Risk

NHTSA campaign 23V154, reported March 8, 2023, 791 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some International HV and MV trucks may have loose or missing bolts holding the battery box to its mounting bracket. Without secure bolts, the battery box can come loose from the vehicle.

If the battery box detaches, it can fall onto the road and become a hazard to other drivers, which increases the risk of a crash. If you own an affected vehicle, do not ignore this recall.

An authorized dealer will replace and tighten all four bolts, as necessary, at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed April 28, 2023. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your VIN for open recalls, or contact Navistar customer service at 1-800-448-7825 and reference recall number 23506.
