Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1152290 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | November 10, 2022 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Lexus, Toyota |
| Component | Seat Belt |
| Production period | July 19, 2001 — June 2009 |
| Vehicles affected | 21 units |
Defect
In replacement front seat belt assemblies equipped with a force limiter — a device that gradually releases belt tension during a collision to reduce chest load on the occupant while maintaining restraint at a defined level — inadequate manufacturing control of the shaft inside the retractor mechanism has produced units with incorrect geometry. When the force limiter activates in a collision, belt webbing payout increases beyond the intended amount, which may reduce occupant restraint.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the serial number of the affected seat belt and replace any confirmed unit with a conforming part.

状況
交換修理用のフォースリミッタ(※)付き前席シートベルトにおいて、巻取機構内のシャフトの製造管理が不適切なため、形状不良のものがある。そのため、衝突時に乗員保護のためのフォースリミッタが作動した際、ベルトの引き出し量が増加して、乗員の拘束力が弱まるおそれがある。 (※)フォースリミッタ:衝突時にシートベルトの拘束力を一定レベルに保ちながらシートベルトを少しずつゆるめることにより、乗員の胸部に加わる衝撃を緩和する装置。
改善措置
全車両、対象となるシートベルトの製造番号を点検し、該当する場合は良品と交換する。
