The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced recalls involving thousands of trucks manufactured by Mack Trucks Inc. and Volvo Trucks North America. The affected models span the 2025 and 2026 model years and involve separate issues related to trailer lighting and interior door mechanisms.
Mack Trucks Recall Details
Mack Trucks Inc. is recalling roughly 156 Mack Pioneer VR trucks from the 2025-2026 model years. The issue involves the trailer lighting system.
When a trailer is connected, the lights may not illuminate because of a body control module that was manufactured incorrectly.
Remedy:
Dealers will replace the trailer body input/output module at no cost to owners. Notification letters are scheduled to be mailed on November 17. For assistance, owners can contact Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177. The recall number assigned by Mack is SC0484. Vehicle Identification Numbers included in the recall can be searched on the NHTSA website.
Volvo Trucks Recall — Trailer Lighting Issue
Volvo Trucks North America is recalling approximately 2,307 New VN trucks from model years 2025-2026 for the same potential trailer lighting malfunction.
As with the Mack recall, the trailer lights might not activate when towing, due to a body control module that was improperly manufactured.
Remedy:
Dealers will replace the trailer body input/output module at no charge. Owner notification letters should be mailed on November 17. Volvo Trucks customer service is available at 800-528-6586. The recall reference number is RVXX2507. VINs included in the recall may be searched through the NHTSA website.
Volvo Trucks Recall — Door Latch Cable
A separate recall affects an additional 3,609 New VN trucks from the 2026 model year. This issue is unrelated to lighting.
The problem involves the interior door handle. The door latch cable may have been installed incorrectly, which could prevent the door from opening.
Remedy:
Dealers will replace both the pivot clip and the door latch cable at no additional charge. Notification letters are slated for mailing on November 17. Owners with questions can call Volvo Trucks customer service at 800-528-6586. This recall is listed under number RVXX2508, and VINs can be confirmed on NHTSA’s site.
