Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1124220 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | November 26, 2009 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Hino, Isuzu |
| Component | Pressure control/transmission unit |
| Production period | October 2003 — August 29, 2007 |
| Vehicles affected | 2,146 units |
Defect
On buses, improper cleaning of the brake lines allows contaminants to enter the brake fluid, causing brake fluid to leak from the brake booster (air master). Continued operation allows the contaminated fluid to degrade the rubber components in the hill start aid (HSA) system and the ABS modulator. In the worst case, the brakes may become impossible to release.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, confirm whether the air master has been previously replaced. On vehicles where no replacement has been performed, inspect the air master, HSA valve, and ABS modulator. On any unit showing brake fluid leakage, replace the affected parts with new components and flush the air lines.

状況
バスの制動装置において、ブレーキ配管の洗浄が不適切なため、ブレーキ液に混入した異物により、倍力装置（エアマスター）からブレーキ液が漏れることがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、坂道発進補助装置（ＨＳＡ：ヒル・スタート・エイド）及びＡＢＳモジュレータのゴム部品が侵され、最悪の場合、ブレーキが解除できなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、エアマスターの交換履歴の有無を確認し、交換されていない車両については、エアマスター、ＨＳＡバルブ並びにＡＢＳモジュレータを点検し、ブレーキ液が漏れているものは、当該部品を新品と交換するとともに、エア配管を洗浄する。
