Filed November 26, 2015 · Mitsubishi, Nissan

Overview

MLIT filing number2104820
TypeImprovement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策)
Date filedNovember 26, 2015
Manufacturer(s)Mitsubishi, Nissan
ComponentAutomatic transmission
Production periodDecember 2008 — March 14, 2012
Vehicles affected101,927 units

Issue

In the automatic transmission parking mechanism — which mechanically locks the output shaft — the parking control lever is produced under insufficient weld process controls. If the driver shifts into Park before the vehicle has fully stopped, excessive stress is applied to the lever and the weld joint may fracture. When this occurs, the parking mechanism no longer engages. If the vehicle is then parked on a slope without applying the parking brake, it may roll away.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the parking control lever with a conforming part.

状況

自動変速機のパーキング機構(自動変速機のアウトプットシャフトを機械的に固定する機構)を作動させるパーキングコントロールレバーにおいて、溶接工程管理が不十分なため、車両が停止する前にPレンジへシフト操作をすると、当該レバーに過大な応力がかかり溶接部が破損することがある。そのため、パーキング機構が作動しなくなり、駐車ブレーキをかけずに坂路等に駐車した場合、車両が動き出すおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、パーキングコントロールレバーを良品に交換する。
