Defect
In the combination meter, the control program is incorrect. When the vehicle is started or the engine is started, the warning display duration alerting the driver that a rear-seat occupant's seat belt is unfastened may fail to meet the display time required by law. As a result, the vehicle does not conform to Safety Standards Article 22-3 (Seat Belts, etc.).
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reprogram the meter ECU control program to the corrected specification, or replace the combination meter with the corrected part. Additionally, explain to owners that the corrected software changes the seat belt warning display duration and warning lamp activation conditions, and distribute an in-vehicle reference instruction sheet.

状況
