Mack Granite (Gu) Recall 15V522: Loose Wiring and Air Lines Can Tangle and Affect Brakes

NHTSA campaign 15V522, reported August 17, 2015, 62 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some heavy trucks may have chassis wiring and air brake lines that are not properly clipped to the crossmember. Over time, these cables and air lines can fall and become twisted in the driveline.

If the electrical cables and air lines get tangled in the driveline, the electrical system and braking system could be affected, which raises the risk of a vehicle crash.

Owners should contact Mack customer service at 1-800-528-6586 and reference recall number SC0393. The inspection and repair, which properly clips the harness and air lines, are free at an authorized dealer. Check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your truck is affected.
