Recall 16V098000 · manufacturer campaign SC0400
Steering — Mack · reported 19 Feb 2016 · 1,187 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Granite (GU) and TerraPro (MRU) trucks manufactured from November 9, 2015, through January 19, 2016. The affected trucks may be missing a roll pin to secure the upper steering yoke to the steering shaft.
The risk
If the roll pin is missing, the steering shaft may disconnect from the yoke, resulting in a complete loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Mack will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace the steering shaft if the roll pin is missing, free of charge. The recall began on April 1, 2016. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-610-709-2131. Mack's recall campaign number for this recall is SC0400.
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.
Vehicles covered by this recall

Is this car's recall fixed?
