The 2002 Mack Cx has 7 NHTSA recall campaigns affecting an estimated 83,949 vehicles. Recall repairs are always free at any authorized dealer. Last updated July 6, 2026.
MACK IS RECALLING 34,269 MY 1999-2005 CX AND MY 2004-2008 CXN TRUCKS. THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH MAY PREMATURELY FAIL RESULTING IN INOPERATIVE OR INTERMITTENT HEADLIGHTS.
THE HEAD LIGHTS MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY WHICH COULD RESULT IN INTERMITTENT OR NO HEADLIGHT FUNCTION. THIS COULD IMPAIR A DRIVER'S VISIBILITY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 27, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MACK AT 1-800-528-6586.
ON CERTAIN TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH ASET AC MODEL ENGINES, THE ENGINE AS CONFIGURED WITH AN EXTERNAL EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM MAKES SERVICING THE FUEL INJECTION LINES DIFFICULT WHEN USING TRADITIONAL TOOLS. THEREFORE, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR FUEL LEAKS TO DEVELOP WHEN REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE FUEL INJECTION LINES.
A LEAK IN THE FUEL INJECTION LINE MAY SPRAY FUEL ON THE HOT SURFACES OF THE EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ENGINE FIRE.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL INJECTION LINES FREE OF CHARGE. NOTE: THIS RECALL SUPERSEDES A PREVIOUS CAMPAIGN CONDUCTED IN 2006 (PLEASE SEE 06V392). THE RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2007, WITH SUBSEQUENT MAILINGS EVERY SIX WEEKS UNTIL APRIL 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT MACK AT 800-528-6586.
