Problem Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Pinnacle (PI/PN) trucks. The air tanks have an insufficient volume of air for the brake system. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 121, "Air Brake Systems." Risk Insufficient air volume can reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash. Fix Dealers will install the correct volume air tanks, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 10, 2025. Owners may contact Mack's customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0473.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. SC0473 is the number Mack assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 25V026000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is SC0473 the same recall as 25V026000?

Yes. SC0473 is Mack’s own number for it; 25V026000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does SC0473 cover?

2024–2025 Mack Pinnacle (pi/pn) and 1 other Mack model, 21 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the SC0473 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
