Hazard

The waterproof structure of the connectors in the electrical wiring attached to the vehicle body is inadequate. When these connectors are directly exposed to water during washing or similar operations, water may enter the interior. Continued use in this condition can cause corrosion of the electrical contacts inside the connectors, resulting in electrical devices malfunctioning. In the worst case, this may lead to loss of vehicle propulsion and other serious failures.
