What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2025 International Mv, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Engine
Reports naming the engine itself — including stalling, misfires, oil consumption, cooling and internal engine components.
From owner reports, verbatim
The serpentine belt system keeps on eating belts. This unit needs a 4th belt with only 8900 miles. Its had many trips to the dealer under warranty and they refuse to fix the Root Cause of the belts going bad. The serpentine belt system controls the ac compressor, water pump, cooling fan and alternator. When belt failure occurs multiple truck operating systems simultaneously go down. The belt will start squeeking then eventually will stop charging. The dealership has replaced the belt tensioner and the serpentine belt twice. Its a design flaw, there is an engineering issue with either the belt tensioner, idlers or pulley alignment. The chassis upfitter was also complaining of multiple brand new units experiencing excessive belt squeeling that will in short time lead to failure. The problem is known about at the dealer, it is very easily reproduced as belts average lifespan is about 2,000 miles. This is a dangerous condition as it can disable multiple truck systems in the event of belt failure. No warning lamps.

Truck is unsafe at highway speeds shaking violently and making lane changes scary and sways too much shakes at 65-70 and can’t see clearly out mirrors or concentrate as it sways from side to side at lane changes. Replaced new tires with new tires. Driveshaft service and alignments and balancing. No help.
