This filing is one of 26 Hino notifications from 2011 in this archive. For scale, 3,023 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 6 years and 7 months.
Defect
In the automatic transmission, the routing of the oil cooler hose that supplies automatic transmission fluid to the oil cooler is improper. Engine vibration causes wear on the snap ring at the joint connecting the oil cooler and the hose. Continued use allows the snap ring to fracture, causing the hose to detach and transmission fluid to leak. As a result, drive power is lost and the vehicle becomes inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the oil cooler hose and bracket with corrected parts, and replace the snap ring with a new part.

状況
自動変速機において、自動変速機用のオイルをオイルクーラーへ供給するオイルクーラーホースの配索が不適切なため、原動機の振動によりオイルクーラーと当該ホースを締結しているジョイント部のスナップリングが摩耗するものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、スナップリングが折損して当該ホースが外れ、オイルが漏れて動力が伝わらなくなり、走行不能となるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、オイルクーラーホースおよびブラケットを対策品と交換するとともに、スナップリングを新品に交換する。
