Issue

On the auxiliary seats of the microbus, the hinge pin that serves as the pivot for seat folding is improperly attached to the seat cushion bracket. Repeated folding operations cause the hinge pin to shift, allowing the cotter pin that retains the hinge pin to contact the seat cushion frame. Continued repeated folding may fracture the cotter pin and, in the worst case, allow the hinge pin to pull free, causing the auxiliary seat to tilt.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, inspect the hinge pin installation method. Where the installation is improper, remove the resin collar and replace the hinge pin with the corrected part.

状況

マイクロバスの補助座席において、折り畳み用の回転中心軸(ヒンジピン)のシートクッションブラケットへの取付け方法が不適切なため、折り畳み操作の繰り返しによりヒンジピンがずれ、ヒンジピンの抜け出しを防止する割りピンがシートクッションフレームに干渉するものがある。そのため、折り畳み操作の繰り返しにより、割りピンが折損し、最悪の場合、ヒンジピンが抜けて、補助座席が傾くおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、当該ヒンジピンの取付け方法を点検し、取付け方法が不適切なものは樹脂カラーを取り外すとともに、ヒンジピンを対策品と交換する。
