What NHTSA recorded

On certain trucks, the cab entry steps were manufactured incorrectly causing them to have lower material strength properties than designed. These lower material strength properties can allow the step tread to fracture and separate from the vehicle under normal usage.

Possible consequence

Step tread separation while a person is entering or exiting the cab, may result in properly damage or personal injury.

Remedy

Dealers will install reinforced metal brackets on both cab entry step platforms. The recall began on december 2, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
