International HV Recall 26V516: Windshield Wipers May Disconnect, Reducing Visibility

NHTSA campaign 26V516, reported August 6, 2026, 49 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

A retaining nut in the windshield wiper assembly may loosen over time, which can cause both windshield wipers to disconnect from the wiper motor. When the wipers stop working, the driver's view through the windshield can be reduced, which increases the risk of a crash.

If you own a affected truck, an authorized dealer will tighten the wiper motor drive nut and three motor mounting bolts at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed September 21, 2026. You can also contact International customer service at 1-331-332-5000 and reference recall number 26513.
