Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1150850 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | January 26, 2022 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Toyota |
| Component | Turn Signal |
| Production period | September 17, 2020 — May 28, 2021 |
| Vehicles affected | 70,046 units |
Defect
In the rear turn signal, the circuit board inside the LED socket has insufficient water resistance, allowing rainwater to drip into the socket and cause condensation on the board. Repeated cycling between condensation and drying under electrical load causes a short circuit to form on the board. In the worst case, the rear turn signal may become inoperative.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the LED socket of the rear turn signal with a corrected/revised part. On a subset of vehicles, also replace the housing to allow proper installation of the revised socket.

状況
後面方向指示器において、LEDソケット内の回路基板の耐水性が不十分なため、雨水等がソケットに滴下して当該基板に結露が発生することがある。そのため、結露した状態での通電と乾燥を繰返すと、基板上に短絡回路が形成され、最悪の場合、後面方向指示器が作動しなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、後面方向指示器のLEDソケットを対策品に交換するとともに、一部車両に対しては、当該ソケットの組付けを可能にするハウジングに交換する。
