    Parking Brake

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain conventional trucks equipped with the aisin automatic transmission, the parking brake cable and automatic transmission shifter cable may have been routed incorrectly. This mis-assembly could cause chafing of the parking brake cable and eventual failure of the cable.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record

    Steering / Linkages

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain trucks, during assembly, the drag link attachment nuts at the pitman arm and steering arm may have been incorrectly torqued. Residual grease and paint which was applied as a rust inhibitor on the steering arm may have contributed to a loss of torque after assembly.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Increased wear for the draglink connections can occur creating a noticeable increase in the amount of steering wheel free play. If this condition was ignored, a loss of steering control of the vehicle could occur which could result in a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will inspect the steering arm tightness and remove all grease and paint from the steering arms and retorque the draglink attachment nuts at the steering arm and pitman arm. The recall began on may 12, 2006. Owners may contact hino at 1-248-648-6430.
