“Mack 2018 MRU Trucks: ABS Warning Light Missing May Cause Trailer Crash.” GovInfoNow, updated October 4, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1225194-mack-2018-mru-trucks-abs-warning-light-missing-may-cause. Based on NHTSA recall #25V030000 (https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=25V030000).

Why it’s dangerous

How to tell if you have this one
