Overview
| MLIT filing number | 2103050 |
|---|---|
| Type | Improvement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策) |
| Date filed | November 10, 2005 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Nissan, Nissan Diesel |
| Component | Power Steering |
| Production period | June 12, 2004 — May 19, 2005 |
| Vehicles affected | 10 units |
Issue
On fire trucks, the mounting hole position for the power steering pump on the flywheel housing is incorrect, resulting in insufficient backlash between the power steering pump gear and the meshing air compressor gear. This causes gear damage and abnormal noise. Continued operation can fracture the power steering pump shaft and, in the worst case, increase steering effort.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, the power steering pump assembly is replaced with a corrected part, and the air compressor gear and gear case are replaced.

状況
消防車において、エンジンのパワーステアリングポンプを取り付けるフライホイールハウジングの穴位置が不適切なため、パワーステアリングポンプギヤと当該ギヤに噛み合うエアコンプレッサギヤのバックラッシがないものがある。そのため、当該ギヤが損傷して異音が発生し、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、最悪の場合、パワーステアリングポンプシャフトが折損し、操舵力が増大するおそれがある。

全車両、パワーステアリングポンプ一式を対策品に交換するとともに、エアコンプレッサギヤ並びにギヤケースを交換する。
