Defect

Inadequate manufacturing process controls for the rear hub allowed foreign material to become embedded in the hub material during production, resulting in insufficient strength. Continued use allows vibration during driving to initiate a crack in the hub. In the worst case, the hub may fracture and the wheel may detach from the vehicle.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the rear hub with the corrected part and replace the surrounding components with new parts.

状況

リアハブの製造管理が不適切なため、製造工程において材料に異物が混入し、強度が不足しているものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、走行時の振動等によりハブに亀裂が生じ、最悪の場合、ハブが破断し、車輪が脱落するおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、リアハブを対策品と交換するとともに、周辺部品を新品と交換する。
