⚠️ What's wrong
Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling one 2021 NJ8A vehicle. The end fittings on the replacement air brake hose assembly may not have the manufacturer designation. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 106, "Brake Hoses."
💥 The risk
The air brake hose end fitting may not be traceable should there be a safety recall, increasing the risk of a crash, injury, or fire.

A dealer will replace the air brake hose, free of charge. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is AANT0.
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.)
