Complaints by model year
Newer model years have had less time on the road, so they naturally have fewer complaints. Compare a year against its neighbors rather than against brand-new models.

Mack CHU recalls
Risk: If the ball sockets come loose from the tie rod, a complete loss of steering may result, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the seat belt detaches from its mounts, the seat belt would fail to properly restrain to the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury in the the event of a crash.
Risk: If the driver is not warned of something being in the truck's path, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Risk: A failure of the hazard warning lights could reduce the trucks visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Deposits of contaminants may result in the circuits being bridged, creating a high resistance short, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the nut comes loose, the hub assembly may separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: A loss of brake function at one wheel will lead to increased stopping distances and pulling to the left or right when braking, which may increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the low beam headlights go out, the driver may lose visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the weld fails, the pedal shaft may work its way loose and potentially cause the clutch pedal to fall to the floor, which would limit the driver's control of the vehicle increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: The bolts may fail and could result in the fifth wheel coming loose causing the trailer to separate from the tractor increasing the risk of a crash.
