NHTSA complaint #2163101 (ODI reference 11708828) concerns a 2022 KENWORTH T680 and was filed on January 5, 2026. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 5, 2025. The vehicle had 450 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as engine and engine cooling:engine:engine control module (ecu/ecm), 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: 0, 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 KENWORTH T680 cohort independently describe similar engine and engine cooling:engine:engine control module (ecu/ecm) failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data.
