Summary

Mack Trucks, Inc. "Mack" is recalling certain model year 2015 Mack LEU trucks manufactured March 31, 2014, to December 12, 2014. In the affected vehicles, a component of the door opening mechanism may be too short and as a result, the door may not be able to be opened by someone inside the truck.

Consequence

If the door cannot be opened from the inside, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.

Remedy

Mack will notify owners, and dealers will replace the inner door latches, free of charge. The recall began March 27, 2015. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Mack's number for this recall is SC0388.

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.
