Filing in context

The Continuously Variable Transmission is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 8 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 15 Honda notifications from 2006 in this archive. For scale, 2,244 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 month.

Defect

The oil pump that supplies hydraulic pressure to the continuously variable transmission has an improperly machined mating surface on the pump body. This allows pump discharge pressure to force the rotor into contact with the sliding surface. Continued operation causes the rotor and sliding surface to seize. In the worst case, the pump may fail, rendering the vehicle inoperable.

Corrective action

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

状況

無段変速機へ油圧を供給するオイルポンプにおいて、ポンプボディの組付け面の加工が不適切なため、ポンプ吐出圧によりロータと摺動面が干渉するものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、ロータと摺動面が固着し、最悪の場合、ポンプが破損して走行不能となるおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、無段変速機を対策品と交換する
