Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1111530 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | July 7, 2004 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | Automatic transmission |
| Production period | October 20, 1989 — January 24, 1994 |
| Vehicles affected | 354 units |
Defect
On certain automatic transmissions, the rubber oil seal that maintains hydraulic pressure in the 4th-gear clutch has insufficient strength margin. Continued operation can cause the seal to crack, reducing hydraulic pressure and causing the clutch to slip. As a result, the vehicle may fail to accelerate even when the accelerator pedal is depressed. (Note: This filing adds vehicles that were omitted from the recall filed on April 12, 1994, under notification number 433.)
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the end clutch assembly with a corrected part.
