Automotive mmWave radar can develop vibration, antenna misalignment, radome blockage, and receive-channel degradation that corrupt the signal before perception begins. Data for these faults are scarce because each condition must be induced and measured on physical hardware. We introduce Rad-R, a raw-ADC dataset captured with a 4-chip 77GHz TI MMWCAS-RF-EVM cascade (192 virtual channels). Unlike existing raw-radar datasets, Rad-R pairs each recording with a controlled hardware fault at a calibrated severity, an independent physical severity measurement, and frame-synchronised IMU, temperature, GPS, and camera streams. Rad-R is a single-session dataset, so our generalisation claims are confined to a controlled cross-severity protocol in which train and test use physically distinct captures. A reproducible benchmark evaluates seven representative vision backbones and the proposed raw-IQ Mamba SSM (RadrNet) under within-clip, chirp-wise anytime, few-shot cross-capture, and controlled cross-severity protocols. Within-clip performance is near-saturated ($>0.98$ macro-F1), whereas cross-severity generalisation remains difficult: the absolute-phase RadrNet-DS falls to $0.49$ macro-F1. RadrNet-DS-CI replaces absolute phase with per-frame-standardised magnitude and relative chirp-to-chirp phase and ranks first on the controlled benchmark ($0.663$ vs. $0.628$ for the strongest RD-CNN; three seeds); the RadrNet family also leads on the anytime and few-shot budgets. A descriptive cross-modal analysis further finds that radar micro-Doppler covaries with independently measured IMU vibration energy (pooled Spearman $ρ=0.41$ across conditions). The complete dataset and code will be released publicly under permissive licences.
