Summary: On certain cab and chassis trucks, when excessive force is applied to the accelerator pedal, beyond that required to achieve full acceleration, the pedal may become wedged between the floor panel and the carpet.
Consequence: When this occurs, the accelerator pedal will become wedged in the full throttle position which could result in a crash without warning.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the accelerator pedal height to determine if it is within specifications. If either the pedal height or the accelerator rod is not within specifications, replace the accelerator assembly. In addition, a new bracket containing an accelerator pedal stopper will be installed. The recall began on September 8, 2004. Owners should contact hino customer service at 1-845-365-1400.
Notes: Hino recall no. A3720.CUSTOMERS can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

Has your Hino been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

Check your VIN with NHTSA

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Hino dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
