Recall 11V-295: 2012 Mack Granite (GU), 2012 Mack LEU and 4 more
MACK TRUCKS, INC recall for power train, reported to NHTSA on May 20, 2011, covering about 584 vehicles.
The problem
Mack trucks is recalling certain model year 2012, chu, cxu, gu, mru, leu, and td trucks equipped with a meritor driveline. The tubing used to assemble the affected drivelines has a nonconforming seam weld with insufficient bonding of the material.
The risk
This can result in seam weld fracture when torque is applied. Once the tube seam weld is fractured, the driveline may become inoperable which may result in a disabled vehicle or debris from the driveline may fall on the roadway, both of which can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the drivelines free of charge. The safety recall began on july 25, 2011. Owners may contact mack trucks at 1-800-528-6586.
