The defect
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2010-2015 LEU vehicles manufactured May 14, 2009, through February 14, 2014, and equipped with a Cummins ISL engine. In the affected vehicles, the exhaust pipe may disconnect from the muffler/catalyst.
The risk
If the exhaust pipe separates from the muffler on a twin-steer configured vehicle where the vehicle is operated from the right side, the operator may be exposed to carbon monoxide levels which may cause personal injury.
The remedy
Mack will notify owners. The recall began on April 21, 2014. The recall is expected to begin in late April 2014. Owners may contact Mack Trucks at 1-336-393-2000. Mack's number for this recall is SC0376.
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.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
