The following safety recall was issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
- Chrysler is recalling certain 2019 Ram 1500 trucks. An incorrect tire pressure monitoring system sensor could have been installed during production causing the sensor to not display the low tire pressure warning indicator. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 138, “Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems.” Without a warning indicator, the driver will be unaware if low tire pressure occurs, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 34 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2019-2020 TerraPro vehicles. The headlamps may not be properly aimed, possibly reducing the driver’s visibility. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of FMVSS number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.” Reduced visibility can increase the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 1,879 vehicles are affected by this recall.
- Mack Trucks is recalling certain 2020 Anthem, Granite and Pinnacle vehicles. The castle nuts and cotter pins used to connect the steering drag link to the pitman arm and steering arm may have not been correctly installed, potentially causing separation of the drag link. If the drag link separates, loss of steering control my occur, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 80 vehicles are affected by this recall.
