The problem
Mack Trucks Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 CXU trucks manufactured February 1, 2013, through January 27, 2014, and equipped with a vertical wet tank (aka supply air tank) for the brake system. The pressure relief valve may not have been installed in the tank during manufacturing.
The risk
Without a pressure relief valve, the air tank could rupture from being overpressurized increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Mack will notify owners, and dealers will install a pressure relief valve in the air tank, free of charge. The recall began on June 11, 2014. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-866-298-6586. Mack's number for this recall is SC0380.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
