Defect
In the rear axle of four-wheel-drive vehicles, the oil seal material is inappropriate for low-temperature operation, causing abnormal wear of the seal lip. This allows differential oil to leak. In the worst case, the leaked oil may contaminate the brake shoes and reduce braking force.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the oil seal with a corrected part and the retainer with a new part. Inspect the bearings and brake shoes; if oil contamination is found, replace the bearing alone or both the bearing and brake shoes with new parts as applicable.

状況
４輪駆動車のリヤアクスルにおいて、オイルシールの材質が不適切なため、低温環境下での使用により、当該シールリップ部が異常摩耗することがある。そのため、デファレンシャルオイルが漏れ、最悪の場合、漏れたオイルがブレーキシューに付着して制動力が低下するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、オイルシールを対策品に、リテーナを新品に交換する。また、ベアリングおよびブレーキシューを点検し、オイル付着がある場合はベアリングもしくはベアリングおよびブレーキシューを新品に交換する。
