Filing in context

This filing is one of 46 Isuzu notifications from 2013 in this archive. For scale, 4,521 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 2 years and 2 months.
Defect
On vehicles where the hill start aid (HSA) device has been relocated, the mounting position used during relocation is improper, causing the HSA exhaust hose to contact a bolt and deform. Continued use in this condition restricts air discharge when the HSA releases, causing brake drag until the air is fully expelled.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, add a spacer and replace the mounting bolt with a corrected part.

状況
坂道発進補助装置（ＨＳＡ：ヒル・スタート・エイド）を移設した車両において、移設時の取付け位置が不適切なため、ＨＳＡの排気ホースがボルトと干渉し、当該排気ホースが変形するものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、ＨＳＡ解除時に排出するエアが抜けにくくなり、エアが完全に排出されるまでの間、ブレーキの引き摺りが発生するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、スペーサを追加するとともに、取付けボルトを対策品に交換する。
