- Summary
- Hino is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 NV8J trucks. The u-joint attachment bolts may not have been properly tightened during the manufacturing process.

If this vibration were ignored, the u-joint attachment bolts could shear and a portion of the propeller shaft could separate from the vehicle, thus falling onto the surface of the roadway and be struck by a vehicle resulting in a crash.

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.
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.
