2013-2015 International Recall 14V201: Caliper Bolts

RN
Reviewed by the RecallNotify editorial team
Published June 2, 2026

Recall 14V201 affects 297 2013-2015 International Durastar, Workstar, Prostar, and Transtar trucks for loose brake caliper bolts. Repair is free at any franchised International dealer.

International is recalling 297 2013-2015 Durastar, Workstar, Prostar, and Transtar trucks because air disc brake calipers were built with too few mounting bolts or bolts that were not tightened correctly. A loose caliper can pull the vehicle left or right while braking, lengthen stopping distance, and raise crash risk; the dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The air disc brake caliper on the 2013-2015 International Durastar, Workstar, Prostar, and Transtar is the clamp that squeezes the brake pads against the disc when air pressure applies the brakes. It has to stay firmly bolted to its mounting plate so the pads press evenly and the brake assembly stays aligned under heavy braking loads.

On affected trucks with air disc brake feature codes 04WEY, 04WEZ, or 04WZK, the caliper mounting hardware was built incorrectly. The caliper mounting plate has the wrong number of bolts, and some bolts were not tightened to the proper torque. That leaves the caliper less secure than designed, especially as vibration and braking force work against the mounting points.

There is no warning sign before failure. A driver should not count on noise, pedal feel, or a dashboard alert to show that the caliper hardware is wrong.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.

What's the safety risk?

Loose or missing air disk brake caliper bolts let the caliper come loose from its mounting plate. When that happens, the truck can pull left or right during braking and need more distance to stop, increasing crash risk. Schedule the dealer inspection and bolt repair soon. Repair will be free at any franchised International dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2013-2015 International Durastar, Workstar, Prostar, or Transtar is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised International dealer to confirm repair timing for recall number 14V201.
  3. Schedule the free air disc brake caliper bolt inspection, replacement, and torque check that fixes loose or missing caliper bolts.
  4. Bring the recall notice if International mailed one. If not, reference recall number 14V201 when you call.
  5. Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Leave extra following distance and avoid hard braking.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, an International technician replaces any missing air disc brake caliper bolts and checks the torque on the caliper bolts already installed. The repair focuses on the brake caliper attachment to the caliper mounting plate, where the recall says vehicles were built with missing bolts or improperly torqued bolts. Parts and labor are free under the recall. The source does not give a reimbursement plan, so ask the service desk how prior brake-caliper repair paperwork is handled.
