The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA): 

  • Ford Motor Company is recalling certain 2022-2023 Ford Super Duty F-350, F-450, F-550, and F-600 vehicles. The fasteners for the front wheel hub extender may be insufficiently tightened, which can result in the wheel and wheel extender detaching from the vehicle. Wheel detachment can result in a loss of vehicle control and create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 13 units are affected by the recall.
  • Hino Motors Sales is recalling certain 2022-2023 Hino NE7A, NE7B, NJ7A, NJ7B, NV7A, and NV7B vehicles equipped with a 2500 series transmission. The transmission shift selector has a Park 'P' position, even though the transmission does not contain a mechanical park mechanism. The vehicle may rollaway if the shift selector is set to Park 'P' without the parking brake applied, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 986 units are affected by the recall.
  • Jayco is recalling certain 2023-2024 Jayco White Hawk travel trailers. A window may be incorrectly marked as an emergency exit. An incorrectly labeled window can prevent or delay an emergency evacuation, increasing the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 168 units are affected by the recall.
  • Nova Bus is recalling certain 2021-2023 LFS transit buses equipped with a directional foot switch. The turn signals may intermittently become inoperative. Inoperative turn signals may not notify other drivers of a turning vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 718 units are affected by the recall.
  • Nova Bus is recalling certain 2020-2023 LFS and LFS Artic transit buses. The brackets retaining the Mobile Climate Control HVAC Unit could fail and allow the unit to detach from the bus. An HVAC unit that detaches from a bus can create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 339 units are affected by the recall.
  • Paccar is recalling certain 2024 Peterbilt 520 vehicles. The rear lifting bracket that attaches to the engine cylinder head may be insufficiently secured, which can allow it to detach. A rear lifting bracket that detaches while the engine is being lifted can result in the engine falling or swinging, increasing the risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially nine units are affected by the recall.
  • Thor Motor Coach is recalling certain 2021-2024 Thor Rize and Scope motorhomes. The solar panel frame may fracture around the mounting bolts, allowing the panel to detach from the vehicle. A detached solar panel can become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 2,295 units are affected by the recall.
  • Triple E Recreational Vehicles is recalling certain 2023-2024 Triple E Wonder W24RTB, W24RL, and W24FTB motorhomes. The wire insulation on the 120-volt wire routed to the air conditioner may become damaged, which can cause electrical arcing. Electrical arcing may cause sparks and increase the risk of a fire. NHTSA says potentially 37 units are affected by the recall.
  • Xos is recalling certain 2021-2022 SV05 and 2021 SA01 vehicles. The bolts and brackets connecting the hardware to the electronic parking brake system may come loose, causing the parking brake to fail. Electronic parking brake failure can result in a rollaway if the vehicle is not in park with the manual park brake engaged, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 242 units are affected by the recall.
