Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1114850 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | August 19, 2005 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | M/T |
| Production period | November 18, 1994 — July 25, 2005 |
| Vehicles affected | 41,548 units |
Defect
Incorrect torque instructions for the bolts securing the transmission to the engine allow the bolts to loosen under repeated hard acceleration, creating a gap between the engine and transmission. Continued operation produces abnormal noise or causes the shift lever to become misaligned. In the worst case, clutch operation becomes difficult and the vehicle may become inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, retighten the affected bolts to a newly established, increased specified torque. The updated tightening torque will also be communicated through the service manual.
Affected models & chassis ranges
This filing lists 133 type code(s). A vehicle is affected if its chassis number falls within one of the ranges below.

状況
トランスミッションを原動機に取り付けているボルトの締付け指示が不適切なため、急激な発進の繰り返し等により、当該ボルトに緩みが発生し、原動機とトランスミッションの間に隙間が生じるものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、異音が発生する、又はシフトレバーの位置がずれ、最悪の場合、クラッチ操作が困難になり、走行不能となるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、当該部ボルトの締付けトルクを増大し、新たに設定した規定トルクで締付ける。また、整備解説書記載の当該ボルト締付トルクを変更した旨周知する。
