Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1137432 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | January 26, 2016 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Hino |
| Component | Door |
| Production period | March 17, 2006 — February 20, 2014 |
| Vehicles affected | 1,309 units |
Defect
On small low-floor buses, the circuit for the door position detection switch is improperly designed, allowing current exceeding the rated value to flow through the contacts when the switch activates. This causes contact surface damage. Continued use may result in the contacts remaining permanently closed, and in the worst case, the door may become unable to close.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, a resistor is added to the switch circuit and the switch is replaced with a new unit.

状況
2.小型ノンステップバスの扉において、 ①扉の位置を検知するスイッチの回路が不適切なため、当該スイッチがオンになった際、接点に定格値を超える電流が流れ、接点が荒れるものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、接点どうしが導通したままとなり、最悪の場合、扉が閉められなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、 2.①スイッチの回路に抵抗を追加するとともに、スイッチを新品に交換する。
