Overview
| MLIT filing number | 2103340 |
|---|---|
| Type | Improvement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策) |
| Date filed | October 18, 2006 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi, Nissan |
| Component | Other (boarding device) |
| Production period | November 1995 — September 13, 2004 |
| Vehicles affected | 1,730 units |
Issue
On welfare vehicles modified to include a tail-gate lift, the terminal section of the weight detection switch — which senses whether a wheelchair is present on the lift — is exposed. If the hook of the lift's buffer spring breaks, the spring may contact the exposed switch terminal. In the worst case, this contact may cause the lift to operate unintentionally without the operator activating the control switch.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, insulating material is applied to the weight detection switch terminal section and all four springs are replaced with new units. A caution label is also affixed.

状況
テールゲートリフト付車に改造した福祉車両において、リフト使用時に車いすの乗車の有無を検知する重量検知スイッチの端子部が露出した構造となっている。そのため、リフト装置の緩衝スプリングのフック部が折損した場合、緩衝スプリングが当該スイッチの端子部に接触することがあり、最悪の場合、作動スイッチの操作をしないのにリフトが誤作動するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、重量検知スイッチの端子部に絶縁材を貼付け、スプリング４本を新品と交換する。また、コーションラベルを貼付ける。
