Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1123960 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | October 13, 2009 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Suzuki |
| Component | Continuously variable transmission (CVT) |
| Production period | September 2009 — September 15, 2009 |
| Vehicles affected | 442 units |
Defect
Due to an improper manufacturing process for the continuously variable transmission (CVT) reduction gear, machining burrs remain in the gear's oil passages on some units. Continued use may cause these burrs to become lodged in the shift control valve, triggering a hydraulic control warning lamp along with poor acceleration, or may cause the vehicle to reverse immediately after shifting from the R range to the N range.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the continuously variable transmission (CVT) with a non-defective unit.

状況
無段変速機(CVT)のリダクションギヤの製造工程が不適切なため、当該ギヤのオイル通路に切削バリが残存しているものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、当該バリが変速制御バルブに噛み込み、油圧制御異常の警告灯が点灯して加速不良、またはRレンジからNレンジにシフトした直後に後退するおそれがある。
