International recalls 2023–2026 International RH and LT vehicles because transmission may not shift into neutral

The auto neutral function may not recognize that the parking brake has been applied and fail to shift the transmission into neutral, so the vehicle could move unexpectedly and raise the risk of a crash.

What to do

Dealers will replace the quick release valve on the rear axle free of charge; owners may call International's customer service at 1-800-448-7825 and cite recall number 25524. Letters are expected to be mailed March 9, 2026, and VINs will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning January 12, 2026.
