The problem
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.
The risk
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.
