Hazard
On the front side member, due to improper welding equipment settings, the welding gun does not contact the vehicle body panel correctly, and there is a possibility that some weld spots are not fully welded. As a result, the side member strength is reduced, and in a frontal vehicle collision, the vehicle body strength to maintain occupant space is insufficient, which in the worst case may cause injury to occupants.

フロントサイドメンバにおいて、溶接設備の設定不良により溶接ガンが車体パネルへ正しく当たらず、溶接打点の一部で溶接がされていないおそれがある。このため、サイドメンバの強度が低くなり、前方車両衝突の際に乗員空間を確保するための車体強度が足りず、最悪の場合、乗員に危害を与えるおそれがある。
Remedy
Inspect the relevant weld points on all vehicles, and perform welding repairs if welding defects are found.
