2025 INTERNATIONAL LT — Complaint #2123213
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: SENSING SYSTEM: RADAR filed August 22, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2123213 (ODI reference 11682494) concerns a 2025 INTERNATIONAL LT and was filed on August 22, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 1, 2024. The vehicle had 101,185 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Oklahoma based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as forward collision avoidance: sensing system: radar, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 1, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same INTERNATIONAL LT cohort independently describe similar forward collision avoidance: sensing system: radar failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2025 INTERNATIONAL LT shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact was the operator of a 2025 International LT62F company vehicle. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving with another truck in front of the vehicle that was attempting to slow down from at least 200 feet away, the automatic braking system erroneously activated, causing a false positive reaction with the brakes warning system detecting a possible crash with a brick wall, causing the Autonomous Braking and Lane Assist system to slam on the brakes of the tractor and the trailer. The contact stated that the force caused the vehicle to slide to the left, with the momentum of the trailer being hauled. There was no accident reported. The contact sustained a strain of the right shoulder from the seat belt locking. Medical attention was not required. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed, and the contact was advised that the radar was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified
