Defect. Fontaine Modification is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Navistar International 4300, 4400, 7300, 7400, and 7500 trucks; manufactured January 1, 2011 through January 9, 2013 and were modified to be able to be steered from either front seat. Certain steering assembly retaining clips may not be completely engaged, resulting in the clips coming loose.

Risk. Without a retaining clip, the steering may feel "loose" and be unresponsive which may increase steering difficulty and the likelihood of a vehicle crash.

Remedy. Fontaine will notify owners and dealers will inspect each truck's steering cross shaft assembly. Any that are found defective will have the complete steering cross shaft assembly replaced, free of charge. The recall began on April 12, 2013. Owners may contact Fontaine at 1-800-366-8246.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
