OREANDA-NEWS. The company "Hino Motors Sales" on September 11th announced the recall of 5603 cars Hino 300 Series, sold from November 2011 to September 2017. The reason for recall of cars is a defect of stopper ratchet mechanism, informed the press service of Rosstandart.

When the parking brake is activated by raising the lever, the ratchet stopper under the action of the spring cannot fully engage the wheel with the free end, balancing on the top of the tooth of the ratchet wheel. In this state, the stopper cannot completely impede the retrace of the ratchet wheel due to insufficient spring force. Subsequently, this parking brake may not be sufficient to keep the vehicle stationary in relation to the support surface. It will be replaced the parking brake lever on vehicles Hino 300 Series.
