The defect
Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling certain 2022-2023 NE7A, NJ7A, NJ7B, and NV7A vehicles equipped with a 50-gallon fuel tank. The fuel pickup tube may contact the bottom of the tank, restricting the uptake of fuel to the engine.
What it can cause
Restricted fuel update can cause an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will replace the fuel tube, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on January 19, 2023. Owners may contact Hino's customer service at 1-248-699-9390. Hino's number for this recall is AASJ0.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 970 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 58% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V057000 (service brakes, air), 24V075000 (electrical system), 23V756000 (power train), 23V541000 (exterior lighting).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. with NHTSA on December 6, 2022 as campaign 22V898000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
