High-voltage battery cell modules may experience internal short circuits due to improper manufacturing. In worst-case scenarios, this may result in fire.
In the answer-back function during vehicle unlocking, due to an inappropriate lighting program in the control unit, all lighting blocks illuminate simultaneously during answer-back signaling, causing the answer-back duration to slightly exceed …
In the inverter power cable, due to insufficient design review, the high-voltage battery cable is routed near the holder and may be pinched by the holder. Consequently, vibration during operation can cause …
In the cell modules of the high-voltage battery of plug-in hybrid vehicles, improper equipment configuration results in uneven cell surfaces on some units. Consequently, internal short circuits can occur within the cell …
The turbocharger lubricating oil supply line has an improper fixing method. During rapid acceleration or heavy throttle application, internal oil pressure increases and stress concentrates on the oil seal. This causes the …
The rear suspension link rod has inadequate design standards, resulting in insufficient bushing interference strength. During use, the bushing interference loosens, causing noise. If use continues, the bushing may separate from the …
The control program for the driver-side LCD display (virtual cockpit) has insufficient design consideration. Due to vibrations during driving, internal cable resistance may increase, causing the display control program to incorrectly detect …
The control unit managing traffic information has insufficient program design consideration, which may result in delayed detection of obstacles ahead. This does not comply with UN Regulation 159.
Due to improper assembly work instructions at the manufacturing plant, some drive shaft coupling bolts that transmit power from the gearbox are not tightened to the specified torque. This can cause the …
In the front suspension, improper assembly of the resin bearing causes the bearing to be shaved during nut tightening of the damper unit and damper mount. Bearing fragments become trapped between the …
Front wheel suspension damper units have insufficient fastener management of the nuts securing the damper unit to the damper mount. Due to manufacturing variation, some fasteners have low clamping force. When steering, …
In the traction battery cells, improper assembly of the electrode sheet and separator may result in partial deformation of the electrode sheet. The deformed portion of the electrode sheet may damage the …
The clamp securing the rear brake pipe to the frame has insufficient holding force. If the brake pipe disengages from the clamp, it may come into contact with the exhaust pipe. This …
In the voltage regulator, improper harness routing causes the harness to contact the crankcase front end in some units. This results in harness insulation damage and short circuiting, which blows the main …
The steering system has insufficient design consideration for high-speed operation. Road surface irregularities and similar disturbances may cause vehicle oscillation. During emergency braking or evasive maneuvers at high speed, vehicle stability may …
In the electrical wiring on the left side of the engine, insufficient design consideration of cable routing may cause the wiring to interfere with surrounding components such as the intercooler. Continued use …
In the Electric Power Assist Steering (EPAS) system, improper program design can cause overvoltage to stress the motor drive components on the circuit board. This may result in a warning message being …
Under specific conditions such as low tire pressure on the rear wheels, the tire surface may wear irregularly and damage the belt, part of the tire's internal structure. Continued use may result …
The OEM air intake has insufficient mounting strength due to inadequate design consideration for wind pressure during operation. In the worst case, wind pressure while driving may cause the component to detach …
(2) In the high-voltage battery cell module, due to improper manufacturing, a bent edge of the negative electrode sheet can damage the separator. This may cause internal short-circuiting within the cell module, …
In the high-voltage battery cell modules, improper manufacturing has caused the positive electrode sheet cut edge to bend, potentially damaging the separator. This may result in internal short-circuiting of the cell module, …
The engine oil cooler hoses have manufacturing defects causing uneven internal wall thickness with fine indentations. Under engine operating pressure, the thinner wall sections may rupture, leading to oil leakage and warning …
Takata airbag inflator may rupture, ejecting metal fragments
The rear seat left and right seat belt buckles were improperly assembled, with some units installed with the aluminum butyl sheet beneath the rear seat caught between components. As a result, the …
The engine control unit has an improper write instruction for configuration values, preventing the generic fault diagnosis tool from displaying the vehicle identification number (VIN). This results in non-compliance with safety standards.
In the integrated brake unit, due to inadequate manufacturing control, the weld between the servo motor hollow shaft and bearing bush may not be properly executed. This weld cannot withstand the rise …
The bolts securing the rear-mounted spare tire carrier bracket to the vehicle body were improperly tightened during assembly, resulting in insufficient fastening torque in some units. Vibration during operation can cause these …
Heavy-duty transport tractors may have fifth-wheel coupler plates with improperly installed fasteners on the left and right front sides, secured with non-standard bolts and nuts due to inadequate assembly procedures. Continued use …
In GH13-type engine equipped tractors, the urea water tank chassis harness has interim work instructions that are inadequate, resulting in varying waterproofing specifications. This fails to ensure waterproof performance, allowing water ingress …
The flexible pipe section of the exhaust manifold in rotary snow removal vehicles has insufficient strength due to inadequate design review. Cracks may develop due to vehicle vibration during operation, and continued …
