Defect
On automatic transmission vehicles, the pin that secures the key cylinder cap is improperly pressed in on some units. Continued use causes the pin to back out when the ignition key is removed, allowing the cap to fall off. As a result, the engine may be started even though the steering lock is engaged. In the worst case, the vehicle may be driven without steering control.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the key cylinder. If the cap retaining pin has backed out, replace the assembly with a conforming part. On units showing no abnormality, install a pin-retention ring at that location.

状況
自動変速機付車両の施錠装置において、キーシリンダーのキャップを固定するピンの圧入 に不適切なものがあるため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、イグニッションキーを抜 いた時に当該ピンが浮き出し、キャップが外れ、かじ取り装置の施錠装置が作動している にもかかわらず、原動機が始動できることから、最悪の場合、操舵できない状態で走行す るおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、キーシリンダーの当該部位を点検し、キャップ固定用ピンが浮き出しているもの は良品と交換する。なお、異常のないものについては、当該部位にピン抜け防止用リング を取付ける。
