Hazard

Due to improper machining of the parking mechanism actuation lever in the automatic transmission (mechanism that mechanically locks the transmission output shaft), when the lever is operated to the parking position, it may interfere with the valve body, resulting in insufficient engagement between the parking pawl and parking gear. Consequently, if the vehicle is parked on an incline and the parking brake is not engaged, excessive force acts on the gear, potentially causing the vehicle to move unexpectedly in the worst case.

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)の作動レバーの加工が不適切なため、パーキング位置へ操作した際、レバーがバルブボデーと干渉し、パーキングポールとパーキングギヤの噛み合いが不十分なものがある。そのため、坂道等に駐車し、駐車ブレーキを掛け忘れた場合、ギヤに大きな力がかかり、最悪の場合、車両が動き出すおそれがある。

Remedy

Inspect the parking mechanism on all vehicles and replace the valve body with a corrective part on affected units.
