|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | February 18, 2016 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi, Suzuki |
| Component | Other (Electrical Equipment) |
| Production period | September 22, 2005 — October 2014 |
| Vehicles affected | 371,518 units |
Defect
The turn/light switch has insufficient mounting rigidity, causing switch operation to wear the connector terminals. The resulting wear debris oxidizes and forms an insulating deposit. Continued use may allow this insulating material to become trapped between the terminals, causing poor conductivity. As a result, the headlamps, clearance lamps, front fog lamps, rear fog lamps, tail lamps, license plate lamps, and switch-linked interior lighting may fail to illuminate or may flicker, and the turn signals may fail to illuminate.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, grease is applied to the two connector terminal locations.

状況
ターン／ライトスイッチにおいて、取付剛性不足のため、スイッチ操作によりコネクターの端子が摩耗し、その摩耗屑が酸化して絶縁物が生成されるものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、絶縁物が端子の間にかみ込み、導通不良となり、前照灯、車幅灯、前部霧灯、後部霧灯、尾灯、番号灯および当該スイッチ連動の車室内照明が不灯、あるいは点滅、または、方向指示器が不灯となるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、コネクター端子部（二箇所）にグリースを塗布する。
