Defect
Mack Trucks, Inc. (Mack) is recalling certain 2022-2027 TerraPro trucks. The engine control unit (ECU) software may allow the engine to start when the transmission is not in Neutral.

Consequence
Starting the vehicle while in gear may cause unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Corrective action
Dealers will update the ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 14, 2026. Owners may contact Mack's customer service at 1-800-866-1177. Mack's number for this recall is SC0492. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov March 18, 2026.
