Hazard

In the accelerator interlock device that prevents the entry/exit door from opening during acceleration, the support position of the rod that prevents accelerator pedal depression while the door is open is improper. When the accelerator pedal is depressed while the device is engaged, the pedal mounting portion may deform. If the pedal is subsequently depressed laterally in this condition, the accelerator pedal may disengage from the interlock device rod, causing the interlock to become inoperative, or the pedal may catch on the rod, preventing engine speed from decreasing.

乗降口扉の開扉発車防止装置(アクセルインターロック)において、乗降口扉が開放中にアクセルペダルの踏み込みを防止するロッドの支持位置が不適切なため、当該装置が作動している状態でアクセルペダルを踏み込むと当該ペダル取付部が変形することがある。そのため、この状態で更にペダルを横方向に踏み込むとアクセルペダルが当該装置のロッドから外れてアクセルインターロックが作動しなくなる、又は、当該ペダルがロッドに引っ掛かりエンジン回転が下がらなくなるおそれがある。

Remedy

Replace the complete accelerator pedal assembly with the corrective component on all vehicles.
