Hazard
In hybrid vehicles, improper machining processes for high-pressure fuel pump components can cause metal particles to become lodged between pump components and machining fixtures. This can result in cracks forming at the machined surface edges. Continued operation allows vibration during pump operation to propagate cracks through the component, potentially leading to fuel leakage.

ハイブリッド車において、高圧燃料ポンプ構成部品の加工工程が不適切なため、加工時の金属粉が当該ポンプの構成部品と加工治具の間に噛み込むものがある。そのため、加工部端面に亀裂が発生し、そのまま使用を続けるとポンプ作動時の振動で亀裂が貫通し、燃料漏れに至るおそれがある。
Remedy
Measure HC concentration near the high-pressure fuel pump on all vehicles. Replace units exceeding the standard concentration threshold with corrective parts.
