A seat belt recall has been announced for just under 16,000 Mack trucks with improper welding issues.
The seat belt recall affects four different Mack truck models of varying years including:
- Mack Anthem 2019-2025
- Mack Granite 2019-2025
- Mack MD 2020-2025
- Mack MD (Electric) 2024
- Mack Pinnacle 2025
Mack states that 15,800 trucks are affected by the recall, but estimates that only 26% of those have an issue with the seatbelt.
The NHTSA states that the seat belt anchorage bracket assembly may be improperly welded on the aforementioned trucks, and does not comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 210, ‘Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages.’”
Letters notifying owners of affected vehicles will be mailed out on December 5th. Dealers will install a reinforcement plate for the seatbelts at no cost. The number for the Mack recall is SC0485.
