Defect
In the ABS modulator, inadequate control of the grease application equipment during manufacturing caused excessive grease to be applied to the O-ring of the modulator piston. During repeated brake operations, foreign matter adheres to the grease that migrates to the outlet valve. If this contaminated grease becomes trapped in the check valve, stopping distance may increase.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the ABS modulator serial number and replace any affected unit with a conforming part.

状況
ＡＢＳ（アンチロックブレーキシステム）モジュレータにおいて、グリス塗布設備の管理が不適切なため、リザーバピストンのＯリングへ過剰なグリス量が塗布されたものがある。そのため、ブレーキ操作の繰り返しによりアウトバルブへ移動したグリスに異物が付着し、逆止弁へ噛み込むと、制動停止距離が伸びるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、ＡＢＳモジュレータの製造番号を点検し、該当するものは良品に交換する。
