The problem

Mack is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 mru and model year 2010-2011 leu vehicles, manufactured from january 1, 2009, through september 30, 2010 because the front axle may crack and fracture.

The risk

Complete fractures can cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Mack will notify owners, and replace the axle beams on affected vehicles when sufficient quantities are available. As an interim measure, a mag particle inspection will be provided to mitigate risk and identify vehicles with cracked axle beams. This service will be performed free of charge.
