2011 Hino NE8J & 2011 Hino NJ8J recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
Hino is recalling certain model year 2011 NE8J and NJ8J trucks manufactured from june 1, 2010, through december 10, 2010, and equipped with certain eaton transmissions with park feature. The reverse idler shaft may contact the park feature and the two components may bind, preventing the park feature from engaging.
💥 The risk
If a brake is not used or is defective and the park pawl does not engage, the vehicle may be able to move and potentially cause injury to the operator or persons in the vicinity of the moving vehicle or damage property.
🔧 The fix
Hino will notify owners and repair all vehicles that contain this condition free of charge. The safety recall began on MARCH1, 2011. Owners may contact hino at 248-699-9330.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
