| Defect Summary | On certain trucks, during assembly, the drag link attachment nuts at the pitman arm and steering arm may have been incorrectly torqued. residual grease and paint which was applied as a rust inhibitor on the steering arm may have contributed to a loss of torque after assembly. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | Increased wear for the draglink connections can occur creating a noticeable increase in the amount of steering wheel free play. if this condition was ignored, a loss of steering control of the vehicle could occur which could result in a crash. | |||||||||||||||

| Defect Summary | On certain chassis and cabs, the wheel bearings were oil-packed onto the front axle rather than grease lubricated as specified. it was later determined that the caliper mounting bolts were not properly torqued and the proper end play adjustment was not made. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | This can cause the caliper mounting bolts to become loose and back out. the caliper could become disconnected from the rotor assembly which would cause a decrease in braking ability, increasing the risk of a crash. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Dealers will torque all affected caliper mounting bolts and readjust each wheel for the proper end play adjustment. the recall began on september 6, 2005. owners should contact hino at 248-648-6400. | |||||||||||||||
