2024 Mack LR recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2024 LR electric garbage trucks, equipped with electric horns. The circuit connecting the horn button to the horn is missing, making the horn inoperative.
💥 The risk
A vehicle with an inoperative horn cannot alert other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will add the necessary circuits to connect the horn button to the horn, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 20, 2023. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC443.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
