What this recall means for you
A replacement air brake hose on this 2021 Hino NJ8A may have end fittings that lack the manufacturer designation required by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 106 for brake hoses. Without that marking, the hose may not be traceable if a future safety recall is issued, which could increase the risk of a crash, injury, or fire.
If you own this truck, a dealer will replace the air brake hose at no cost to you. You can contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390 and reference recall number AANT0 to confirm your vehicle is included and to arrange the repair.
You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls on the NHTSA website or with any authorized Hino dealer.
