|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | May 26, 2011 |

Defect
On vehicles equipped with a 12-speed automatic transmission, the shift unit cylinder is machined improperly, allowing foreign matter to enter the lever shaft area that links to the shift position sensor. Combined with insufficient grease application on the lever shaft, the shaft develops poor sliding performance, causing the crimped joint connecting the lever and shaft sections to loosen. The sensor can no longer detect the correct shift position, resulting in an inability to shift gears. In the worst case, the vehicle may become inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the shift unit with a conforming unit.

状況
１２段式自動変速機搭載車において、変速を行う装置（シフトユニット）のシリンダの加工が不適切なため、シフト位置検知用センサと連動するレバーシャフト部に異物が入り、さらに、レバーシャフトのシャフト部へのグリス塗布が不足していたため、レバーシャフトが摺動不良となり、レバーシャフトのレバー部とシャフト部を結合しているかしめ部が緩む場合がある。そのため、当該センサが正常なシフト位置を検知できず変速不能となり、最悪の場合、走行不能となるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、シフトユニットを良品に交換する。
