International 3800 2003

• Recall 2002165 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles, the trw model 410m ecu (electronic control unit) can misinterpret particular false wheel speed signals generated from any of the following conditions: an incorrect gap between the sensor and tone ring, a chaffed sensor wire, connector corrosion, sensor vibration or quality of harness and pin-outs. If one of these conditions occurs, the ecu could not distinguish between an actual low friction event on road surface and a low amplitude sensor signal and would activate the abs brakes, instead of deactivating the abs in response to a false signal. The driver would experience a hard brake pedal during the middle to end of a braking event and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop. The driver may experience an unexpected extended stopping distance, which could result in a collision. The abs warning indicator light may not come on to warn the driver of a system malfunction. Correction: dealer will affect repairs. Note: recall superseded by 2004171 and 2004172.

  On certain vehicles, the trw model 410m electronic control unit (ecu) can misinterpret particular false wheel speed signals generated from any of the following conditions: an incorrect gap between the sensor and tone ring, a chaffed sensor wire, connector corrosion, sensor vibration or quality of harness and pin-outs.

The driver may experience an unexpected extended stopping distance, which could result in a collision. The abs warning indicator light may not come on to warn the driver of a system malfunction. Correction: dealers will replace the abs ecu. Note: this recall supersedes recall 2002165.

• Recall 2004179 [Canada]: Steering
  On certain vehicles, the studs used to secure the power steering pump to the engine block can fail, resulting in engine oil leakage and complete loss of power steering without warning. Correction: dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the studs.
