Defect
The water pump pulley fastening holes have a raised boss on their reverse face. Repeated accessory belt loads applied to this boss cause wear, which allows the fastening bolts to loosen. The bolts may then fracture, causing the accessory belt to detach. This results in charging failure and engine cooling failure, illuminating warning lights. In the worst case, the engine stalls and cannot be restarted.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the pulley fastening bolts with corrected parts that have thread-locking compound applied to the threaded portion, and torque them to the specified value.

状況
ウォーターポンププーリ締結穴部の裏面にある凸形状に、補機ベルト荷重が繰返し加わり摩耗すると、締結ボルトが緩むものがある。そのため、ボルトが折損して補機ベルトが外れ、発電不良及び冷却不良が発生し、警告灯が点灯するとともにエンジンが停止して再始動できなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、プーリ締結ボルトをボルトねじ部に緩み防止剤を塗布した対策品と交換するとともに、規定トルクで締付ける。
