  1. Driveshaft (power train)

    NHTSA 87V188000 Reported 3,620 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    Some of bolts fastening rear driveshaft on rear axle flange may loosen causing driveshaft disassembly.

  2. Headlights (exterior lighting)

    NHTSA 82V054000 Reported 5,700 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    The circuit wiring on these vehicles is arranged so that a short circuit in the rear taillights will also result in loss of power to the headlamps. For safety reasons the lighting system wiring should be independent.

    When the ignition key is in the "on" position and the heater is operating at the "low" or "medium" setting, the heater switch wiring will overload in the event the heater motor seizes.

    Remedy: A speed variation resistance unit and an electric motor moisture protection cap will be installed without charge.

    Model years: 1979, 1980, 1981

  4. Springs (vehicle speed control)

    NHTSA 80V157000 Reported 1,992 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    Chafing may occur between the throttle return springs and their mounting brackets and can cause the hook end of the spring to wear prematurely and eventually break.
