Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. "Hino" is recalling certain 2023 NE7A, NJ7A, and NV7A vehicles. The front axle U-bolts that secure the front leaf spring assembly may be over-tightened, which can cause the U-bolts to break and detach.
Broken U-bolts can result in a loss of vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the front axle U-bolts and upper seats, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 31, 2023. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is M0420.
