Defect

In the continuously variable transmission (CVT), the dust-proofing structure of the shift mechanism is inadequate. Dust ingress causes the shift slider to bind, preventing the transmission from shifting. In the worst case, if the transmission locks in the high-speed ratio, the electromagnetic clutch will not engage at launch and the vehicle will be unable to move.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the continuously variable transmission with the corrected part.
