Filing in context
This is the only filing in the archive that cites the Brake lamps as the affected component. This filing is one of 41 Mitsubishi notifications from 2024 in this archive. For scale, 2,215 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 3 years and 5 months.
Defect
On small buses, an error in the brake lamp switch assembly instructions caused some units to be installed with the push rod protrusion length below the specified value. As a result, the brake lamps may fail to illuminate when the brake pedal is applied with light pressure. Additionally, if this condition occurs while the hill-start assist system (EZGO) is active, the ECU may incorrectly detect a system fault, deactivating the autonomous emergency braking system (AEBS) and the vehicle stability control system (ASR) and illuminating warning lights.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the brake lamp switch push rod protrusion length. If the measurement is outside the specified value, adjust it to the specified value.

状況
小型バスのブレーキランプスイッチにおいて、組付時の指示に誤りがあったため、プッシュロッドの突き出し量が正規値以下で組付けられたものがある。そのため、ブレーキペダルの踏みこみ量が少ない場合に制動灯が点灯しないことがある。 また、坂道発進補助装置（ＥＺＧＯ）作動中に当該事象が発生した場合、ＥＣＵがシステム異常と誤判定することにより衝突被害軽減ブレーキ（ＡＥＢＳ）と車両挙動安定装置（ＡＳＲ）の機能が停止し、警告灯が点灯することがある。
改善措置
全車両、ブレーキランプスイッチのプッシュロッド突き出し量を点検し、正規値を外れていた場合は正規値に調整する。
