Defect description

Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2020 Anthem and Pinnacle trucks. The conspicuity reflectors at the back of the cab may be blocked by the exhaust system.

Safety risk

If the reflectors are blocked, the vehicle's visibility to other drivers may be reduced, increasing the risk of crash.
