Mack Granite trucks recalled for insufficient air brake tank volume
Mack is recalling 2022-2024 Granite vehicles because air tanks lack sufficient volume for proper brake system function. This can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash.
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: This recall involves a critical safety system (air brakes) with potential for significant harm (reduced braking performance, increased crash risk). However, the source text does not report any actual crashes, injuries, or fatalities, making the hazard theoretical rather than confirmed.
