CNHI, LLC has notified affected individuals that an unauthorized actor gained access to its computer network between April 27, 2025, and May 17, 2025, and took certain files during that window. This falls under hacking or system intrusion, meaning someone outside the company got into internal systems rather than a device being lost or an employee mishandling records. CNHI says it secured its network after discovering the intrusion and then spent several months reviewing the stolen files before determining, on November 19, 2025, whose information was involved.
The letter is addressed to people whose name was found in the exposed files together with their Social Security number. CNHI’s notice does not state how many people in total were affected, so if you received a letter, it means your specific record was identified in that review.
What information was exposed?
- Full name
- Social Security number
CNHI is offering a complimentary one-year membership in Experian IdentityWorks Credit 3B, which includes credit monitoring across all three bureaus and identity restoration support. You can enroll by February 28, 2026 at https://www.experianidworks.com/3bcredit using the activation code included in your personal letter, or by calling 877-288-8057. A credit card is not required to sign up.
What should you do now?
- Enroll in the free Experian IdentityWorks Credit 3B membership before the February 28, 2026 deadline using the activation code in your letter.
- Place a fraud alert or a credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, since your Social Security number was involved — a freeze is the strongest step to stop new accounts from being opened in your name.
- Pull your free credit reports from all three bureaus at annualcreditreport.com and check for accounts or inquiries you don’t recognize.
- Watch your bank and credit card statements closely over the coming months, and consider signing up for a service like Aura or LifeLock, which can alert you if your information appears elsewhere.
- File a report with the FTC at identitytheft.gov if you notice any signs of misuse, and keep a copy in case creditors ask for it.
- Be cautious of unexpected calls, texts, or emails referencing this breach, since scammers sometimes use real breach notices to trick people into giving up more information.
If you have questions, CNHI can be reached at 1-800-358-9154, Monday through Friday from 7:00am to 4:00pm Central Time.
