What's wrong?
The power cables on the 2025 Mack Granite (Gr) and Anthem (An) trucks carry battery power through the electrical system. The affected routing places 12V positive cables near a 48 V negative ground stud, with a cable routing bracket meant to hold the cables with enough clearance.
On recalled trucks, the cables were not routed and clipped with enough clearance. Vibration or contact near the ground stud can damage insulation or bring conductors too close together. That creates an electrical short, which can overload the circuit and lead to an electrical fire.
The warning sign is an electrical system fault. If the truck shows new electrical fault messages or unusual electrical behavior, treat that as the sign that the cable routing problem is present.
Who's affected?
Covers two Mack truck lines from the same model year, both tied to the 48V battery cable-routing bracket.

A matching year and Mack model does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
An electrical short can stall the engine and increase crash risk. It can also overheat the cables and increase fire risk. Watch for electrical system faults, and schedule the recall repair promptly if your VIN is included. Repair will be free at any franchised Mack dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2025 Mack Granite (Gr) or Anthem (An) is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Mack dealer to schedule the free power-cable rerouting repair.
- Bring Mack's owner letter if you received one. If not, reference recall number 25V382 when you call.
- Ask the dealer whether the truck is safe to operate before the repair, since the cable routing defect can cause an electrical short, engine stall, overheated cables, or fire.
- Call Mack customer service at 1-800-866-1177 with recall questions.
What happens at the repair
The final dealer repair will be free once available. At the dealer, a Mack technician will reroute the power cables so they are no longer positioned where they can short. Parts and labor are covered under the recall. Mack used its standard reimbursement plan for this campaign, so documented out-of-pocket repairs tied to this power-cable routing issue are handled through that plan. Keep prior repair paperwork and ask Mack customer service how to submit it under recall SC0480.
