Filing in context

Defect
On large buses, the toilet water supply tank mounting structure has insufficient strength. This may cause the mounting section to fail and the tank to detach. If the tank detaches, the toilet electrical wiring secured to it may sustain damage and, in the worst case, cause a vehicle fire.
Corrective action
Because preparation of a permanent corrective measure for the water supply tank requires additional time, the following interim measures will be performed. 1. Inspect the water supply tank mounting section on all vehicles and temporarily secure it with a belt. If the tank has already detached, replace it with a new tank. 2. Inspect the toilet electrical wiring on all vehicles for damage, then relocate and re-route the wiring. If the wiring is damaged, repair it. The correction method will be updated once the permanent corrective measure for the water supply tank is ready.

状況
大型バスのトイレ用金属製給水タンクにおいて、タンク固定部の強度が不足しているため、固定部が損傷してタンクが脱落することがある。そのため、タンクに固定されているトイレ用電気配線が損傷して、火災に至るおそれがある。
改善措置
給水タンクの改善措置準備に時間を要することから、以下の措置を行う。 １．全車両、給水タンク固定部を点検し、暫定的にベルトで固定する。 なお、タンクが脱落している場合には新品タンクに交換する。 ２．全車両、トイレ用電気配線の損傷有無を点検し、固定位置と配索を変更する。 なお、配線が損傷している場合には補修する。 給水タンクの改善措置が準備できた時点で、改善措置の方法を変更する。
