Mekra Recalls Medium-Duty Vehicle Mirrors Due to Detachment Risk

Mekra is recalling medium-duty mirrors for PACCAR vehicles because the glass lock ring may not be fully seated, allowing the mirror glass to detach.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (mirror detachment) that reduces visibility and increases crash risk, but no injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

MEKRA Lang North America, LLC is recalling certain medium-duty mirrors manufactured for PACCAR vehicles. The recall involves a defect where the glass lock ring on the cab mirror assembly may not be fully seated. This condition allows the mirror glass to detach from the assembly.

A detached mirror glass can reduce driver visibility, which increases the risk of a crash. The source text does not specify the number of affected vehicles or specific model years, but directs owners to refer to the recall report for a list of part numbers.

Mekra will work with PACCAR to inspect the mirror glass lock ring and repair it as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact MEKRA customer service at 1-803-337-4800 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
