International LT Recall 25V781: Brakes May Stay Engaged While Driving, Raising Crash Risk

NHTSA campaign 25V781, reported November 13, 2025, 1,303 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain heavy trucks may have a clogged exhaust port in the Hill Start Assist valve. A blocked port can delay or prevent the release of the service brakes, so the brakes may remain engaged while the truck is being driven. Brakes that stay engaged while driving increase the risk of a crash.

The remedy is free. Authorized dealers will relocate the Hill Start Assist valve exhaust at no charge to the owner. Owners were mailed notification letters on December 15, 2025.

If you own an affected truck, contact International customer service at 1-800-448-7825 and reference recall number 25522. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls and schedule the repair with an authorized International dealer.
