HINO IS RECALLING 3,836 MY 2008 ND8J, NE8J, NJ8J, AND NV8J CLASS 6 AND 7, CONVENTIONAL CAB, MEDIUM DUTY TRUCKS EQUIPED WITH J08E-TV OR J08E-TW ENGINES. THERE IS AN IMPROPER SHAPE OF THE SUPPLY PUMP COUPLER LOCATED BETWEEN THE SUPPLY PUMP AND THE AIR COMPRESSOR. THE COUPLING MAY CRACK, THE GEAR TRAIN AND VALVES OF THE ENGINE COULD BREAK, AND THE ENGINE COULD STOP RUNNING. THIS WOULD DISABLE THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM, STOP THE SUPPLY OF AIR TO THE AIR TANK, AND MAY RESULT IN INSUFFICIENT BRAKING POWER, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
