For scale, 910 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 5 years and 11 months.
Defect
On the turn signal switch harness, the routing and clip band attachment points to the vehicle body are incorrect. Steering inputs during driving cause the harness to flex repeatedly at the clip band location. Continued use allows this repeated flexing to produce a broken wire in the harness, resulting in malfunction of the headlights, turn signals, brake lights, and horn, or preventing engine start via the starter switch.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the turn signal switch harness with the corrected part, reroute the harness, secure it with harness bands, and install protective covering.

状況
ウインカスイッチハーネスにおいて、車体に固定するクリップバンドの位置及び配索が不適切なため、走行中のハンドル転舵により当該ハーネスのクリップバンド部が屈曲することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、屈曲の繰返しにより当該ハーネスが断線し、前照灯、方向指示器、制動灯、警音器の作動不良になる、または、スタータスイッチによるエンジン始動が出来なくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、ウインカスイッチハーネスを対策品と交換し、配索を変更して、ハーネスバンドで固定するとともに、保護材を取付ける。
