Defect
In the fuel cell control computer (FC-ECU), the fault detection software for the fuel cell stack is incorrect. When the high-voltage battery is fully charged, a drop in fuel cell stack cell voltage may be incorrectly detected as fuel cell stack degradation. This causes warning lights and warning messages to illuminate and the fuel cell system to shut down, which may render the vehicle inoperable in the worst case.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reprogram the fuel cell stack fault detection software with the corrected/updated software.

状況
燃料電池制御コンピュータ(FC‐ECU)において、燃料電池スタックの故障検知プログラムが不適切なため、高電圧バッテリが満充電時の燃料電池スタックのセル電圧低下を燃料電池スタック劣化と誤検知することがある。そのため、警告灯、警告表示が点灯し、燃料電池システムが停止して、最悪の場合、走行不能となるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、燃料電池スタックの故障検知プログラムを対策プログラムに書き換える。
