Low Turn Signal Visibility/FMVSS 108

NHTSA #23V600000 · Exterior Lighting — Turn Signal · NHTSA notice

Reported August 25, 2023 · Mack Trucks, Inc.

Potentially affected: 27,418 vehicles

Repair completion: 53.18% (latest rate the manufacturer reported to NHTSA; dataset updated November 3, 2026)

Mack campaign SC0448

Defect description

Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2015-2023 GU and GR vehicles. The turn signals may be positioned incorrectly, reducing their visibility. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Safety consequence

Low turn signal visibility may not alert other drivers to a turning vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Dealers will add additional turn signal lighting, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed September 25, 2024. Owners may contact Mack's customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0448.

Premature Axle Hub Failure

NHTSA #16V929000 · Suspension — Front — Hub · NHTSA notice

Reported December 23, 2016 · Mack Trucks, Inc.

Potentially affected: 200 vehicles

Repair completion: 83.5% (latest rate the manufacturer reported to NHTSA; dataset updated November 3, 2026)

Mack campaign SC0406 · Owners notified February 16, 2017 · Vehicles built January 7, 2011 – September 29, 2016 (per NHTSA)

Defect description

Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2012, 2014-2015 and 2017 Granite (GU), 2012-2017 Pinnacle (CHU, CXU), and 2013-2015 and 2017 Titan (TD) trucks manufactured January 7, 2011, to September 29, 2016. The affected vehicles were built with front wheel hubs that cannot support the gross axle weight rating of the front axle.

Safety consequence

Overloaded front wheel hubs can result in premature failure of the hubs, bearings, and the related components, which can cause the front hub assembly to separate from the front axle. Because of this, the driver may lose control of the vehicle or parts may be dropped on the road, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Mack will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hub assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2017. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0406.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Safety consequence

If the roll pin is missing, the steering shaft may disconnect from the yoke, resulting in a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Mack will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace the steering shaft if the roll pin is missing, free of charge. The recall began on April 1, 2016. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-610-709-2131. Mack's recall campaign number for this recall is SC0400.
