Mack ANTHEM in the other registers

This site holds seven national and European registers. Mack ANTHEM is named on 24 American notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Issue:
On certain trucks, when the manual override is used to switch off the daytime running lamps (DRLs), the lights may not turn on again when you start driving. Canadian regulations require that if DRLs are manually turned off, they must turn on again when you start driving.

Safety Risk:
Driving without daytime running lights could make the vehicle less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Mack will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your truck to a dealer to update the vehicle software.

The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2021124.

The Canadian register on this site

Mack elsewhere in this register

Mack is named on 334 notices in the copy of Transport Canada’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.

This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Entegra Anthem, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Mack: 334 in the register, and 658 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2021.
