Defect
In the ABS modulator, improper management of the grease application equipment caused excessive grease to be applied to the O-ring of the reservoir piston. Repeated brake applications cause the excess grease to migrate to the modulator outlet valve, where contaminants adhere to it and may become lodged in the check valve. If this occurs, stopping distance increases.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the ABS modulator with a conforming unit.

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モジュレータを良品と交換する。
