What’s wrong with it?

Excessive wear of the cylinders can result in engine failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

UD Trucks Corporation (UD) is recalling one Hino Motors engine, model J08EUJ, sold as a replacement engine for a 2008 UD1800 HD truck.

This engine has wrist pin bushings in the connecting rods that may shift and cause excessive cylinder wear.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
