Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings From time to time, we are involved in legal and regulatory proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses (or the business operations of previously owned entities). These proceedings may seek remedies relating to matters including environmental, tax, intellectual property, acquisitions or divestitures, product liability, property damage, personal injury, privacy, employment, labor and pension, government investigations or contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes. See Note 6, "Income Taxes," of our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of a pending tax litigation matter. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claims, we do not believe it is reasonably possible that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, or financial condition. We have estimated and accrued $4 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 for these general legal matters. Guarantees We obtain certain stand-by letters of credit, bank guarantees, surety bonds and insurance letters of credit from third-party financial institutions in the ordinary course of business when required under contracts or to satisfy insurance-related requirements. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the amount of surety bonds, bank guarantees, insurance letters of credit, and stand-by letters of credit was $821 million and $758 million, respectively. Environmental In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and remediation of sites in various countries. Our accrued environmental liabilities represent our best estimates related to the investigation and remediation of environmental media such as water, soil, soil vapor, air and structures at these sites, as well as related legal fees. Liabilities for these environmental expenditures are recorded on an undiscounted basis. We have estimated and accrued $4 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 for environmental matters. Given the complexities and uncertainties involved in on-going and future investigation and remediation projects, the process to estimate environmental remediation liabilities requires judgment. We believe the total amount accrued is reasonable based on existing facts and circumstances. Warranties We warrant numerous products, the terms of which vary widely. In general, we warrant products against defects and specific non-performance. The table below provides changes in the combined current and non-current product warranty accruals over each period:
(in millions) | 2025 |  | 2024
Warranty accrual – January 1 | $ | 57 |  |  | $ | 63 |
