The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
- Braun Corporation is recalling certain 2023-2024 Ram ProMaster vehicles. The installed window may have the wrong type of glass for an emergency exit. As such, these vehicles fails to comply with the requirements of FMVSS number 226, "Ejection Mitigation." A noncompliant emergency exit can increase the risk of ejection and injury during a crash. NHTSA says 13 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Hino Motors Sales U.S.A. is recalling certain 2026 NV7G, NV7D, NJ7E, NJ7D, NH7K, NE7D, and NH7G vehicles. The owner's manual may include incorrect maintenance instructions about how to retighten U-bolts. Referencing incorrect information may lead to unintentionally overtightening the U-bolts. The bolts can break, shifting the axle and leaf springs and increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says 661 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Nova Bus is recalling certain 2016-2018, 2020, 2022-2023 LFS and 2019-2020 LFS Artic transit buses. The driver's seat belt tension-reliving device may fail to disengage without manual intervention. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of FMVSS number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." Failure of the tension-reliving device may prevent the seat belt from properly restraining the driver, increasing the risk of injury during a crash. NHTSA says 416 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Volvo Trucks North America is recalling certain 2025-2026 VNL vehicles. The service brake may take longer than expected to release. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of FMVSS numbers 121, "Air Brake Systems." A delayed brake release can increase the risk of crash. NHTSA says 222 units are potentially affected by the recall.
- Volvo Trucks North America is recalling certain 2025-2026 VNL vehicles. The instrument panel may fail while driving. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of FMVSS number 101, "Controls and Displays." An instrument panel display that fails to show critical safety information, such as the speedometer or warning lights, increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says 115 units are potentially affected by the recall.
