Brakes

Issue Description

On certain trucks, the engine configuration makes servicing fuel injection lines difficult when using traditional tools. It is possible for fuel leaks to develop following recall campaign 2006258 (Mack SC0317) or when line removal is required to gain access to other engine components. Underhood fuel leakage could result in a vehicle fire. Correction: Dealers will install an updated fuel injection line that offers better clamping surface when torqued. This will be done using specially designed tools to ensure correct torque is applied.

Safety Risk

A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Corrective Action & Repair

Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

Fuel System

Issue Description

On certain trucks, a leak in the fuel injection line may spray fuel on the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) pipes. The hot EGR pipes could ignite the fuel, causing an underhood fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the fuel injection lines. A protective sleeve will be installed over the lines. Note: Recall cancelled, see TC 2007102

Fuel System

Issue Description

On certain vehicles, the location of the fuel hose used on the ASET AC engine may result in overheating and/or abrasion of the hose, which may lead to a premature failure. If the hose fails, fuel can be sprayed on the exhaust manifold, which could potentially lead to an engine compartment fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel inlet hose.

Failure of two of the three bolts could result in the loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will install new steering gear mounting bolts.
