The men's 4 × 400 metres relay competition of the athletics events at the 2019 Pan American Games took place on the 10 of August at the 2019 Pan American Games Athletics Stadium. The defending Pan American Games champion is Trinidad and Tobago.

Summary

The stagger largely held true into the final turn, with Colombia's

Wil London took the baton a step up on 400 champion Anthony Zambrano and Trinidad's Machel Cedenio
, who is also a World Championship relay gold medalist. Down the backstretch, Cedenio went around the crowd and Zambrano tried to follow. London accelerated through the final turn, moving onto Cedenio's shoulder. Coming off the turn he put the formula move on and was off to victory, except Zambrano moved right around London and was sprinting at a much faster speed giving Colombia the gold medal, Zambrano's second of these championships. USA took silver and virtually Trinidad and Tobago's A-team took bronze.
