Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1143290 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | August 31, 2018 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Hino |
| Component | Exhaust pipe |
| Production period | June 26, 2017 — April 2018 |
| Vehicles affected | 24 units |
Defect
During emissions testing of sample engines for light-duty trucks, an improper method of securing the exhaust pipe to the test facility equipment applies bending stress to the pipe that would not occur in normal vehicle installation. This causes cracks to develop at the pipe's weld joints. Exhaust gas and fuel used for DPR (Diesel Particulate Removal device) regeneration may leak from the cracked areas.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected pipe with a new part.
