Defect
In the power transmission system, the propeller shaft material and dimensions are incorrect, resulting in lower fatigue strength than required.

状況
動力伝達装置において、プロペラシャフトの材料及び寸法が不適切なため、想定よりも疲労強度が不足しているものがある。そのため、プロペラシャフトに亀裂が発生する可能性があり、そのまま使用を続けると、最悪の場合、亀裂の進展によりプロペラシャフトが破損し、走行不能に至るおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、プロペラシャフトを対策品に交換する。
