Hino recall: Visibility
What is wrong
Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling certain 2020 NE8J, NJ8J, NV8J, NH1A, NV1A and TH1A vehicles. The mirror glass may not be bonded properly to the carrier plate, allowing it to detach.
What could happen
Detached mirror glass can reduce driver visibility, or become a road hazard to other drivers. Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Hino will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the mirror production date, and replace it if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 7, 2021. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is M0340. This recall supersedes previous NHTSA recall number 19V-564.
