Hazard

In the continuously variable transmission (CVT), the dust seal structure of the transmission unit is inadequate, causing dust to impair slider movement in the transmission unit, which may result in loss of shifting capability. In the worst case, if the transmission becomes locked in the high-speed range, the electromagnetic clutch may fail to engage during startup, potentially rendering the vehicle unable to drive.

無段変速機(CVT)において、 ①変速部の防塵構造が不適切なため、ダストにより変速部のスライダが摺動不良となり、変速できなくなることがある。そのため、最悪の場合、高速側で変速が固定された場合には、発進時に電磁クラッチが締結されなくなり、走行できなくなるおそれがある。

Remedy

Replace the continuously variable transmission with an improved unit on all vehicles.
