Hino Class Action Update - Fact Sheet 1

13 September 2022

 

​

 

RETAIL CUSTOMER INFORMATION ACKNOWLEDGMENT

FOR DELIVERY OF VEHICLES

 

​

It has come to our attention that since around 8 August 2022, Hino dealers have been required by Hino Motor Sales Australia (HMSA) to only deliver Hino vehicles to consumers who sign a Retail Customer information Acknowledgment (“Acknowledgment Form”).

​

Should you be asked to sign an Acknowledgment Form ensure that the Acknowledgment Form includes the following terms:

 

The rights to which you are entitled under your purchase contract (e.g. warranty and/or guarantee rights) and under the Australian Consumer Law remain unaffected by the information mentioned above and your decision whether or not to take delivery of the vehicle today.

​

This clause would likely ensure that your rights as a member of any class action are not prejudiced. Thus, signing an Acknowledgment Form with this clause and taking delivery of the vehicle is not likely to prejudice your rights as a member of any Class Action against Hino.

​
