2004 MACK RD Recalls (3)

Campaign:
05V312000 on 07/12/2005
Component:
Suspension
Manufactured:
12/31/2003 - 03/30/2005
Affected:
100
Defect:
On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks equipped with holland air suspension systems, a transverse beam casting may fracture under normal loads. if a casting breaks when the vehicle is traveling on a roadway there is the potential for pieces of the casting to become projectiles and the suspension's transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road surface.
Consequence:
This will cause sparks that could potentially ignite and cause a fire.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect and replace the defective transverse beam assemblies. the recall began on august 19, 2005. owners may contact mack trucks at 610-709-2131.
Notes:
Mack trucks recall no.sc0300 and sc301.customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
