Filing in context

The Exhaust pipe is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 32 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 19 Hino notifications from 2024 in this archive. For scale, 2,044 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 5 months.

Defect

On large trucks, the paint film thickness at the bolt-fastening area of the exhaust pipe mounting bracket is inadequate. Heat from the engine causes the paint film to thin, allowing the mounting bolts to loosen. Continued use in this condition may cause the bracket to detach and fall onto the roadway, creating a hazard to other traffic.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the affected bracket with a corrected part.

状況

大型トラックの排気管固定用ブラケットにおいて、取付けボルト締結部の塗装膜厚が不適切なため、エンジンからの熱により膜厚が薄くなり、当該ボルトが緩むことがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、最悪の場合、ブラケットが脱落し他の交通を妨げるおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、当該ブラケットを対策品に交換する。
