Hazard

The air tank mounting bracket welding is inadequate, causing the weld to separate due to vehicle vibration and other factors, resulting in bracket looseness. If operation continues in this condition, the air pipe attached to the air tank may become damaged, and in the worst case, air may leak, causing reduced braking force.

②エアタンク取付金具の溶接が不適切なため、車両振動等により、当該取付金具の溶接がはがれて、当該取付金具がぐらつくものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、当該エアタンクに取り付けられたエアパイプが損傷し、最悪の場合、エアが漏れ、制動力が低下するおそれがある。

Remedy

Inspect the mounting bracket welding condition on all vehicles. If welding is inadequate, perform weld repair. Additionally, inspect the air pipe; replace any damaged air pipe with new components.
