Issue Description

On certain trucks, the front turn signals may not be visible from certain angles. As a result, the trucks don't meet the requirements of the Canadian regulations.

Safety Risk

Turn signals that aren't visible from certain angles may cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. This could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action & Repair

Mack will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to install additional front turn signals.

Corrective Action & Repair
