Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1117810 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | November 24, 2006 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Honda |
| Component | Brake lights |
| Production period | November 28, 2001 — May 13, 2005 |
| Vehicles affected | 209,898 units |
Defect
The electrical terminal geometry of the brake light switch is improper, resulting in insufficient contact between the switch terminal and the wiring-side connector on some vehicles. Continued operation allows vibration to wear the contact surfaces of the brake light switch, causing poor electrical continuity. In the worst case, both the brake lights and auxiliary brake lights may fail to illuminate.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the brake light switch with a corrected part and inspect the wiring-side connector. If the wire insulation shows discoloration, replace the wiring-side connector and associated wiring with new components.

状況
制動灯スイッチの電気端子の形状が不適切なため、電気配線側コネクタとの端子結合部の接触が不十分なものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、走行時の振動等で制動灯スイッチの接触面が摩耗し、導通不良となり、最悪の場合、制動灯及び補助制動灯が点灯しなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、制動灯スイッチを対策品と交換するとともに、電気配線側コネクタを点検し配線の被覆が変色しているものは、電気配線側コネクタ及び配線を新品と交換する。
