Affected vehicles

Hino Hino Super Dolphin Profia 2000–2001

Hazard

The brake booster cylinder in the control unit contains manufacturing defects that may prevent the piston from fully retracting even after the primary brake is released. Continued operation in this condition causes the brake lining and drum to remain in contact, which may result in brake drum overheating and ignition in severe cases.
