| MLIT filing number | 2103360 |
|---|---|
| Type | Improvement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策) |
| Date filed | October 26, 2006 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Honda |
| Component | Body |
| Production period | September 15, 2005 — August 2006 |
| Vehicles affected | 193,233 units |
Issue
The open stay attached to the flip-up tailgate was manufactured using an improper process, leaving residual cleaning fluid inside the damper case. This fluid causes the O-ring to swell, reducing damping force and allowing the tailgate to open faster than intended, creating a risk of contact with a person's body. The rapid opening can also cause the back door to oscillate up and down. Continued use under these conditions may damage the open stay mounting point and, in the worst case, cause the back door to drop.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the tailgate open stay with the corrected part and inspect the open stay body-side mounting point. If deformation or other damage is found, perform sheet metal repair or equivalent correction.

状況
跳ね上げ式テールゲートに取り付けられているオープンステーの製造工程が不適切なため、当該オープンステーのダンパケース内に残留した洗浄液により、Ｏリングが膨潤して減衰力が低下し、テールゲートの開放速度が速くなるものがあり身体の一部に当たるおそれがある。又は、速く開いた反動でバックドアが上下に揺動し、そのまま使用を続けると、最悪の場合、オープンステー取り付け部が破損してバックドアが降下するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、テールゲートオープンステーを対策品と交換するとともに、オープンステーの車体側取り付け部を点検し、変形等があるもの場合は板金修正等を行う。
