Defect
The EGR pressure sensor installed in the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system lacks sufficient resistance to exhaust gases. Corrosion from exhaust gas causes abnormal sensor output, triggering a warning lamp and poor acceleration. In the worst case, the engine may fail to start.
Corrective action
Replace the EGR pressure sensor with a corrected part and reprogram the engine control unit on all vehicles.

状況
排気ガス再循環装置（ＥＧＲ）に搭載したＥＧＲ圧力センサにおいて、排気ガスに対する耐力が不足していたため、排気ガスによる腐食からセンサ出力異常を起こし、警告灯点灯、加速不良に至ることがあり、最悪の場合、エンジンが始動できないおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、ＥＧＲ圧力センサを対策品に交換し、エンジンコントロールユニットの制御プログラムを書き換える。
