Defect

In the engine unit, the bolts securing the drive gear to the crankshaft have insufficient durability. During hard acceleration, excessive stress concentrates at the bolt threads and may cause cracking. Continued use can cause the bolt to fracture, releasing the pulse rotor that detects crankshaft rotation. Loss of the pulse rotor signal disrupts ignition and fuel injection, causing the engine to stall. In the worst case, bolt fragments may become ingested and lock the engine.

Corrective action

Replace the drive gear mounting bolts on all vehicles with corrected parts. Because procurement of parts requires additional time, owners will be notified of the defect details now and contacted again once parts are available.

状況

原動機において、ドライブギヤをクランクシャフトに固定するボルトの耐久性が不足しているため、急加速時に当該ボルトのねじ部に過大な応力が集中し、亀裂が生じることがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、ボルトが折損し、クランクシャフトの回転を検知しているパルスロータが外れて、点火及び燃料噴射を適正に行えずにエンストして、最悪の場合、ボルトの破片が?み込み、エンジンがロックするおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、ドライブギヤ固定ボルトを対策品に交換する。 なお、部品の準備に時間を要することから、不具合内容を周知し、準備でき次第、改めて連絡する。
