1999 International 5000 Recall

Issued February 29, 2000
Issue
Hazard description
On certain vehicles, the Antilock Traction Relay Valves manufactured by Bendix were incorrectly assembled. An extra check valve was installed which will not allow the traction control system to function properly. When the system detects a traction control event, the defective valve can cause the rear brakes to apply and not release until the air system pressure is depleted. An unexpected and uncontrollable application of the rear brakes could cause a crash without prior warning. Correction: Suspect vehicles will be inspected and all Antilock Traction Relay Valves found to be defective will be replaced.
