What's wrong

Loose or detached U-bolts can result in a loss of vehicle handling and control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will inspect and tighten the front axle U-bolts. In addition, dealers will replace related parts, as necessary. All repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed beginning July 31, 2023. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is AAUW0.
