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