EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- The defect
- Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2027 Anthem AN (4) and Pioneer PR (4) vehicles. The center roof marker lights may fail to illuminate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
- What it can cause
- Marker lights that fail to illuminate can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the center roof marker light, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 5, 2026. Owners may contact Mack's customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0498. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning August 13, 2026.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 513 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 51% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2027, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2026, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Mack vehicles have been recalled over the exterior lighting 16 times before this, most recently in April 2026 as 26V207000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 26V351000 (wheels), 26V261000 (service brakes, air), 26V207000 (exterior lighting).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Mack Trucks, Inc. with NHTSA on August 6, 2026 as campaign 26V515000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
