Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 26501 is the number International assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 26V084000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Which vehicles does 26501 cover?

2026–2027 International MV, 204 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the 26501 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
