What this recall means for you
The electronic control unit (ECU) that runs the anti-lock brakes, traction control, and stability systems may receive electrical noise or weak signals. This can cause the ECU to process commands incorrectly or stop working altogether.
When these systems lose functionality, the vehicle may have reduced or no anti-lock braking, traction control, electronic stability control, active cruise control, or collision mitigation. That raises the risk of a crash.
The repair is free. International will work with Bendix to reprogram the ECU at an authorized dealer. Owner letters were mailed January 19, 2026. You can contact International customer service at 1-800-448-7825 (recall number 25525), or check your VIN for open recalls on NHTSA.gov.
