International Auto Logistics opened new vehicle processing centers, like this one in Mildenhall, England, when it took over the contract in May to ship servicemembers' vehicles. The company has faced criticism for late deliveries and not being able to provide accurate information about the location of vehicles.

The lawsuit was filed on the same day information was posted online indicating International was not meeting the 98 percent on-time delivery rate required in the government contract. A Facebook user posted an email from U.S. Army Command Sgt. Maj. James K. Sims, with U.S. Army Materiel Command, that said International, as of Aug. 19, had processed “27,358 vehicles: 14,154 vehicles are currently in transit with approximately 70 percent late in meeting the required delivery date.”
