Hazard
The electrical terminals of the brake light switch have an improper shape, resulting in insufficient contact at the terminal connection with the electrical wiring connector. If operation continues in this condition, vibration during driving may cause wear on the contact surface of the brake light switch, leading to poor electrical continuity. In the worst case, the brake light and auxiliary brake light may fail to illuminate.

制動灯スイッチの電気端子の形状が不適切なため、電気配線側コネクタとの端子結合部の接触が不十分なものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、走行時の振動等で制動灯スイッチの接触面が摩耗し、導通不良となり、最悪の場合、制動灯及び補助制動灯が点灯しなくなるおそれがある。
Remedy
All vehicles will have the brake light switch replaced with a corrected unit, and the electrical wiring connector will be inspected. For connectors with discolored wiring insulation, both the electrical wiring connector and wiring will be replaced with new parts.
