|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | June 14, 2018 |

| Component | Computer (Engine) |
| Production period | September 29, 2017 — May 2018 |
| Vehicles affected | 23,208 units |
Defect
In the diesel engine control program, a software error causes the engine control computer to incorrectly identify the brief residual rotation that occurs during engine shutdown as an abnormality, preventing the computer from cutting off its own power supply. As a result, the start-stop unit interprets this condition as a short circuit in the starter circuit. When the push-button start is pressed, the power position may fail to switch to ON, preventing the engine from starting.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reprogram the engine control program with the corrected software.

状況
ディーゼルエンジンにおいて、エンジン制御プログラムが不適切なため、エンジンを停止させた際の僅かなエンジン回転を異常と判定し、エンジン制御コンピュータへの電源供給が停止しなくなる。そのため、スタート・ストップ・ユニットがスタータ回路の短絡と判定し、プッシュボタンスタートを押しても、電源ポジションがＯＮに切り替わらず、エンジンが始動できなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、エンジン制御プログラムを対策プログラムに書き換える。
