Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1116990 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | July 18, 2006 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Toyota |
| Component | Other (Engine) |
| Production period | January 31, 2001 — November 2001 |
| Vehicles affected | 268,570 units |
Defect
The crankshaft position sensor housing is improperly molded, resulting in insufficient engagement depth on the wiring connector lock and inadequate sealing by the O-ring. Engine oil gradually infiltrates the sensor through the deficient O-ring seal. Continued operation causes the intruding oil to thermally expand inside the sensor, deforming the connector lock. In the worst case, the connector separates, causing a loss of continuity that stalls the engine and prevents restart.
Corrective action
Replace the crankshaft position sensor on all vehicles with a conforming part.

状況
エンジンのクランク角センサにおいて、樹脂製ボデーの成型が不適切なため、配線コネクタのロックの掛かり代が少ないもの及びオーリングのシール性が不足しているものがある。そのため、オーリングからセンサ内にエンジンオイルが徐々に侵入し、そのまま使用を続けると、侵入したオイルがセンサ内で熱膨張することによりコネクタのロックが変形し、最悪の場合、コネクタの接続が外れ導通不良となり、エンジンが停止し再始動できなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、クランク角センサを良品と交換する
