Hazard
In the brake booster pump of the electronically controlled hydraulic brake system, the injection mold for the plastic brush holder, which is a component of the pump motor, is improperly designed, resulting in insufficient clearance between the brush and holder. During pump operation, the holder experiences thermal expansion, causing the brush to catch on the holder, which leads to poor electrical contact in the pump motor. As a result, the pump motor may not operate and the warning light illuminates. In the worst case, the power-assisted braking function may be compromised, potentially extending the braking distance.

電子制御式油圧ブレーキのブレーキブースタポンプにおいて、ポンプモータの構成部品である樹脂製ブラシホルダの成形型が不適切なため、ブラシとの隙間が小さく、ポンプ作動時に当該ホルダが熱膨張してブラシが当該ホルダに引っ掛かり、ポンプモータが導通不良となるものがある。そのため、ポンプモータが作動せず警告灯が点灯し、最悪の場合、倍力作用が損なわれて制動停止距離が伸びるおそれがある。
Remedy
All vehicles: inspect the brake booster pump and replace defective units with new ones.
