Recall campaigns

EXTERIOR LIGHTING 12V434000 2012-09-06 3,864 affected

Defect

Mack is recalling certain model year 2007-2010 CHU and CXU vehicles, manufactured from October 13, 2006, through December 23, 2009 and equipped with daytime running lights and fog lights. A short in the fog light circuit may cause the low beam headlight circuit to cut out.

Consequence

If the low beam headlights go out, the driver may lose visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Mack will notify owners, and install an additional wiring harness on the affected vehicles, free of charge. The safety recall began on November 14, 2012. Owners may contact Mack Trucks at 1-800-866-1177.

Defect

ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH A SAF HOLLAND SIMPLEX FIFTH WHEEL, THE LEVER ARM PIVOT BOLT MAY HAVE BEEN OVER TIGHTENED. AN OVER TIGHTENED PIVOT BOLT CAN DISTORT THE PIVOT BOLT SPACER SLEEVE, WHICH MAY PREVENT THE FIFTH WHEEL LATCH JAW FROM CLOSING AND LATCHING SECURELY AROUND THE TRAILER KING PIN.

Consequence

THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE PIVOT BOLT CAN BECOME LOOSE WITHOUT THE DRIVER'S KNOWLEDGE. WHEN THIS OCCURS, THE DRIVER COULD DRIVE AWAY AND THE TRAILER COULD BECOME DISENGAGED, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE PIVOT BOLT AND SLEEVE WITH A HEX HEAD SHOULDER BOLT AND WASHER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 28, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MACK TRUCKS AT 1-800-528-6586.

Defect

ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE NUT THAT RETAINS THE STEERING WHEEL MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED.

Consequence

Remedy

DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE HORN BUTTON TO CONFIRM THAT THE RETAINING NUT WAS INSTALLED. A RETAINING NUT WILL BE ADDED IF THE NUT IS MISSING. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 12, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MACK TRUCKS AT 800-866-1177.
