MY COWORKER WAS CHANGING THE OIL ON A 2009 MACK AND I HAPPENED TO NOTICE THAT THE 5TH WHEEL PLATE WAS SHIFTING AROUND ON THE FRAME. I APPLIED A BOX END WRENCH TO THE MOUNT BOLTS AND DISCOVERED THAT ALL TEN OF THE FASTENERS HOLDING THE 5TH WHEEL TO THE FRAME COULD BE TURNED EASILY USING ONE HAND. THAT IS NOT MY IDEA OF BEING SECURELY ATTACHED! NO ACTION WAS TAKEN ON THIS TRUCK BECAUSE IT WAS TIME TO GO HOME AND IF THE BOSS DOESN'T CARE AND MACK DOESN'T CARE WHAT CAN I DO EXCEPT COMPLAIN TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT MACK IS USING SUBSTANDARD BOLTS IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THEIR TRUCKS! THE 5TH WHEELS ARE LOOSE. MANAGEMENT DOESN'T WANT TO KNOW!
