Filing in context
The Engine is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 72 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 8 Hino notifications from 2001 in this archive. For scale, 2,250 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 2 years and 9 months.
Defect
During press forming of the sensor plate — a component of the electronically controlled fuel injection system that regulates fuel injection quantity — microscopic cracks formed on some parts. Continued use allows engine vibration to fracture the sensor plate, disabling control of fuel injection quantity and injection timing. In the worst case, exhaust emissions may exceed the specified limit.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the sensor plate with a corrected part.
