Filing in context
The Other (safety lamps) is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 4 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 36 Mitsubishi notifications from 2021 in this archive. For scale, 1,639 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 year and 7 months.
Defect
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) flash rate does not meet the minimum cycle count required by the Safety Standards. On tractor vehicles, a bulb failure in the trailer turn signal lamps does not change the flash cycle displayed on the instrument cluster, preventing the driver from detecting the fault.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, the ASAM control program is reprogrammed with the corrected software.

状況
(2)緊急制動表示灯(ESS:Emergency Stop Signal)作動時の点滅回数が保安基準の定める回数より少なく、トラクタ車においては、トレーラ側の方向指示器に球切れが生じてもメータークラスタ上の方向指示器の点滅周期が変化しないため、運転者席で方向指示器の作動状態を確認出来ない。
改善措置
(2)全車両、ASAMの制御プログラムを対策品に書き換える。
