Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2010-2016 Granite (GU) trucks. Vehicles remedied under Recall 15V804 (SC0398) may have had incorrect parts installed during subsequent repairs. The incorrect parts may cause a brake imbalance between the steer and drive axle brakes and the rear brakes to overheat. (excerpt)
Consequence: Overheated brakes may cause a tire blowout or fire, increasing the risk of a crash. (excerpt)
Remedy: Dealers will inspect and replace the brake chambers as necessary, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed April 14, 2026. Owners may contact Mack's customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0491. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning December 22, 2025.

Defect: 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.
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.
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.
Do not drive: No. Park outside: No.

Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2012-2016 Granite (GU), Pinnacle (CHU, CXU), TerraPro (LEU, MRU), Titan (TD), and LR trucks manufactured from September 1, 2011, through September 8, 2015. The cap nut that retains the interaxle driveshaft yoke to the rear axle input shaft may loosen. (excerpt)
Consequence: If he cap nut loosens and falls off, the yoke can separate from the axle input shaft and allow the drive shaft to disconnect, increasing the risk of a crash. (excerpt)
Remedy: Mack will notify owners, and dealers will replace the cap nut. The input shaft threads will be inspected for damage. Any damaged input shaft will be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. An interim notice was sent to owners on April 25, 2016. The recall began on June 7, 2016. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-610-709-2131.

Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2010-2016 Granite 4X2 trucks manufactured September 17, 2009, to July 31, 2015. Due to a brake imbalance between the steer and drive axle brakes, the rear brakes may overheat.
Consequence: If the rear brakes overheat there would be an increased risk of a tire blowout or a wheel-end fire.
Remedy: Mack will notify owners, and dealers will replace either the brake chambers on the steer axles or the drive axles to correct the imbalance, free of charge. The recall began on January 27, 2016. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Mack's number for this recall is SC0398.

Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2010-2016 Granite (GU), LR, and TerraPro (LEU, MRU) trucks manufactured November 17, 2009 to October17, 2015. The affected trucks have engines with a turbocharger oil supply line that may contact or interfere with the turbocharger inlet elbow, clean air intake clamp, or the air fuel control tube, and result in an oil leak.
Consequence: If the turbocharger oil supply line oil leaks in the proximity of the engine exhaust manifold there would be an increased risk of a fire.
Remedy: Cummins will notify owners on behalf of Mack, and dealers will inspect for oil supply line interference or damage, eliminating the interference and replacing the oil supply line, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin November 30, 2015. Owners may contact Cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Cummins' number for this recall is SC0396.

Date: 2015-08-18. Systems: SERVICE BRAKES, AIR.
Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2011-2016 Granite (GU) trucks manufactured September 24, 2011, to July 1, 2015. The affected trucks may be equipped with an air brake system reservoir that does not have a sufficient volume. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence: If the air brake system reservoir has as insufficient volume, braking performance may be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Mack will notify owners, and dealers will add additional air brake reservoir volume, free of charge. The recall began on October 15, 2015. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0394.

Defect: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2013 and 2015 Titan (TD), model year 2014 and 2015 Pinnacle (CHU), and model years 2009-2010, 2012, and 2014-2016 Granite (GU) trucks. The chassis harness and air lines may not be properly clipped to the crossmember, which can allow the cables and air lines to fall and get twisted in the driveline.
Consequence: If the electrical cables and air lines were to fall and get tangled in the driveline, it could affect the electrical system and braking system, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Mack will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and properly clip the harness and air lines, free of charge. The recall began on September 30, 2015. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Mack's number for this recall is SC0393.
