What's wrong

Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling certain 2026 NV7G, NV7D, NJ7E, NJ7D, NH7K, NE7D, and NH7G vehicles. The owner's manual may include incorrect maintenance instructions about how to retighten U-bolts.

The risk

Referencing incorrect information may lead to unintentionally overtightening the U-bolts. The bolts can break, shifting the axle and leaf springs and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the owner's manual, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 9, 2026. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is M0490.
