High riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Mack. On certain model vehicles, water around the windshield can migrate into the Electronic Power Distribution Module and contaminate it. As a result, circuits may be bridged creating an electrical short. This could potentially result in a fire, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the module, and if found contaminated, will replace it. Additional measures will be taken to address the leak if contamination is found. Published 2014-02-26.
