Defect
The lithium-ion battery controller contains incorrect control software that may prevent accurate monitoring of the battery state of charge. This causes the battery level gauge displayed on the instrument cluster to fluctuate repeatedly. Continued driving may trigger the e-POWER system warning lamp. In the worst case, the system incorrectly determines that the battery is insufficiently charged, shuts off power output to the drive motor, and renders the vehicle inoperable.
Corrective action
Verify the part number of the lithium-ion battery controller control software on all vehicles and reprogram applicable units with the corrected/updated software.

状況
リチウムイオンバッテリコントローラにおいて、制御プログラムが不適切なため、バッテリ充電状態を正確に把握できなくなることがある。そのため、メーターに表示されているリチウムイオンバッテリ残量計が増減をくりかえし、そのままの状態で走行を続けると、ｅ－ＰＯＷＥＲシステム警告灯が点灯し、最悪の場合、バッテリ残量不足と誤判定されることで駆動用モータへの出力を停止し、走行不能に至るおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、リチウムイオンバッテリコントローラの制御プログラム部番を確認し、対象のものは対策プログラムに書き換える。
