Electronic Stability Control (Esc) › Control Module › Software (21V233000, 2021-04-01)
Problem: Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2018-2022 Anthem (AN), Granite (GR/GU), and Pinnacle (CHU/CXU/PI) vehicles equipped with "camelback" rear suspension and electronic stability control. The vehicles may not stay in their lane at certain speeds. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 136, "Electronic Stability Control Systems on Heavy Vehicles."
Risk: A vehicle that drifts out of its lane increases the risk of a crash.
Free fix: Mack will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the vehicle control units, free of charge. The recall began on April 21, 2021. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0423.

Problem: Mack Trucks Inc.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Risk: The undersized air brake supply reservoir may provide an insufficient air supply to properly operate the brakes during repetitive brake applications, reducing braking performance and increasing the risk of a crash.

Risk: Unintended vehicle movement can increase the risk of a crash.
Free fix: Mack has notified owners, and dealers will update the software or replace the clutch, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on January 25, 2019. Owners may contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0415.
