2015 MACK LEU Complaints and Recall Information
The 2015 MACK LEU has 0 complaints and 5 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to engine operation, door mechanism functionality, exhaust system integrity, and parking brake performance based on recall data.
There are five recalls affecting various systems including engine components, door latches, exhaust system, and parking brake actuators. These recalls address risks such as fire hazards, operator injury, exposure to carbon monoxide, and brake malfunctions.
Recalls- Engine crankcase vent defect. Recall 15V275000 affects 2,124 vehicles. The 90-degree elbow on the vent tube assembly may detach causing engine oil to contact hot surfaces. This could increase the risk of fire. Repairs include securing vent tube ends and reprogramming the ECM to limit crankcase pressure.
- Intake manifold sensor malfunction. Recall 14V137000 involves 1,934 vehicles with Cummins Westport ISL G/ISX12 G engines. Condensation may freeze and impair pressure sensor operation, causing high exhaust temperatures or flames. The fix consists of uploading new ECM calibration at authorized service centers.
- Exhaust pipe separation risk. Recall 14V088000 covers 958 vehicles equipped with Cummins ISL engines. The exhaust pipe may disconnect from the muffler, exposing drivers to carbon monoxide especially in twin-steer setups. Mack will notify owners to schedule repairs to secure the exhaust pipe.
- Inner door latch failure. Recall 15V056000 affects 734 trucks manufactured early 2014 to late 2014. A door opening mechanism component may be too short preventing the door from opening from the inside, hindering emergency egress. Dealers will replace the inner door latches free of charge.
- Parking brake actuator defect. Recall 15V025000 applies to 349 trucks with certain Haldex Life Seal actuators. An incomplete diaphragm attachment could cause leakage, trapping air and preventing full brake release. This could cause brake drag, overheating, and fire risk. Dealers will inspect and replace actuators as needed.
Owners facing repeat repairs or unresolved recall issues related to safety or engine function may have rights under their state lemon law. Consulting an attorney specializing in consumer protection could assist in understanding potential legal options.

2015 MACK LEU
349 vehicles affected
PARKING BRAKE:DRIVELINE:HYDRAULIC:ACTUATOR
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2015 and 2016 CXU and LEU trucks manufactured May 20, 2014, to March 24, 2015, equipped with certain Haldex Life Seal Type 30/30 Long Stroke Air Brake Actuators manufactured from January 9, 2014, through February 3, 2015. The affected actuators may have an incomplete attachment of the internal rubber diaphragm to the actuation mechanism of the parking brake section of the Life Seal actuator.
Risk: If the diaphragm is not completely attached, there may be internal leakage from the service section past the diaphragm, potentially trapping air pressure in the parking brake section. This air pressure in turn, if not vented, may prevent full release of the actuator unit, and may induce brake drag and may result in overheated wheelend service brakes, increasing the risk of a fire.
2015 MACK LEU
2124 vehicles affected
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2011-2016 Mack MRU and LEU trucks manufactured June 25, 2010, to April 30, 2015, and 2015-2016 LR6 trucks manufactured from December 18, 2014 through March 6, 2015. Excessive engine crankcase pressures may cause the 90-degree elbow of the vent tube assembly to detach from the crankcase ventilation breather, possibly allowing engine oil to come into contact with hot surfaces.
Risk: If engine oil comes into contact with a hot surface, there could be an increased risk of a fire.
2015 MACK LEU
734 vehicles affected
LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2015 Mack LEU trucks manufactured March 31, 2014, to December 12, 2014. In the affected vehicles, a component of the door opening mechanism may be too short and as a result, the door may not be able to be opened by someone inside the truck.
Risk: If the door cannot be opened from the inside, egress from the vehicle could be hindered which would increase the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
2015 MACK LEU
958 vehicles affected
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2010-2015 LEU vehicles manufactured May 14, 2009, through February 14, 2014, and equipped with a Cummins ISL engine. In the affected vehicles, the exhaust pipe may disconnect from the muffler/catalyst.
Risk: If the exhaust pipe separates from the muffler on a twin-steer configured vehicle where the vehicle is operated from the right side, the operator may be exposed to carbon monoxide levels which may cause personal injury.
2015 MACK LEU
1934 vehicles affected
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
Mack Trucks Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 CXU, 2010-2015 LEU, and 2011-2015 MRU vehicles manufactured with certain Cummins Westport Model ISL G and ISX12 G engines. Condensation in the intake manifold may freeze during cold weather conditions and interfere with the proper operation of the intake manifold pressure sensor.
Risk: The improper operation of the sensor could induce elevated exhaust temperatures or flames from the exhaust pipe, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire or burn injury to a person near the exhaust pipe.
