Complete transmission failure in 2014. I was informed by the dealer that "the factory does not supply replacement transmissions for this vehicle as the transmissions (aisin) have been nothing but problems and they're having dealers source out rebuilt units from 3rd party suppliers as they're not dealing with it. The truck has since suffered 3 (total) complete transmission failures within 1 year and less than 10,000 miles. Factory is aware of a major power train problem, and have failed to recall, rectify or offer a solution to consumers. 2 unanswered e-mails were sent to john musial, director of hino service operations, requesting assisstance with this matter.
