Defect: Hino Motor Sales U.S.A., Inc. (Hino) is recalling certain 2013-2017 XFC710L, XFC720L, XFC730L, and XFC740L vehicles. The clutch drum spline of the front module of the Hybrid Vehicle (HV) motor may wear out.
Risk: If the clutch drum spline wears out, the vehicle will lose the ability to move under its own power, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Hino will notify owners, and dealers will replace the clutch drum spline with one that has increased wear resistance, free of charge. An interim notice was mailed to owners on May 22, 2017. The recall began on November 9, 2017. Owners may contact Hino customer service at 1-248-699-9390.
