Defect
Mack trucks is recalling certain model year 2012, chu, cxu, gu, mru, leu, and td trucks equipped with a meritor driveline. The tubing used to assemble the affected drivelines has a nonconforming seam weld with insufficient bonding of the material.

This can result in seam weld fracture when torque is applied. Once the tube seam weld is fractured, the driveline may become inoperable which may result in a disabled vehicle or debris from the driveline may fall on the roadway, both of which can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the drivelines free of charge. The safety recall began on july 25, 2011. Owners may contact mack trucks at 1-800-528-6586.
