Hino recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Jim Reed's Truck Sales, Inc. (JRTS) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Hino 338 trucks modified by JRTS. The affected trucks have Certification labels that do not identify JRTS as the final stage manufacturer. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
What could happen
Incorrect final stage manufacturer information on the certification label may hinder owner awareness of safety recalls, increasing the risk of a fire or a crash.
The fix
JRTS will notify owners and send them a new certification label with the correct final stage manufacturer information, free of charge. The recall began on June 13, 2017. Owners may contact Jim Reed's Truck Sales' customer service at 1-914-737-3990.
