POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:GEAR POSITION INDICATION (PRNDL)
- The defect
- Hino Motors Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Hino NE7A, NE7B, NJ7A, NJ7B, NV7A, and NV7B vehicles equipped with a 2500 series transmission. The transmission shift selector has a Park 'P' position, even though the transmission does not contain a mechanical park mechanism.
- What it can cause
- The vehicle may rollaway if the shift selector is set to Park 'P' without the parking brake applied, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the shift selector as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 03, 2024. Owners may contact Hino customer service at (248) 699-9300. Hino's number for this recall is M0440.
- 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.safercar.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 985 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, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Hino vehicles have been recalled over the power train 5 times before this, most recently in November 2011 as 11V537000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V057000 (service brakes, air), 24V075000 (electrical system), 23V541000 (exterior lighting), 23V457000 (suspension).
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 November 9, 2023 as campaign 23V756000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
