RJ-0993-0

The exhaust pipe does not have an appropriate shape, and therefore, continual driving may cause stress on the exhaust pipe and the muffler to increase, for example, at a certain range of rpm. If this problem is left unattended, the exhaust pipe and the muffler may be damaged, which might allow exhaust gas to leak.

RJ-1006-0

For the brackets that secure the front part of the torque rods of the rear axle shock absorbers, they do not have sufficient strength to bear the load in braking, and therefore, they may crack, when the load is repeatedly placed on them. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks may progress, and the torque rods may come off, causing the vehicle to stall.

RJ-1025-0

The brackets of the hydraulic suspension system for the front axle do not have sufficient strength, and therefore, they may crack from vibration and impact during driving. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks may progress and cause the posture of the vehicle body to change, which could adversely affect the stability of the vehicle.

RJ-1144-0

On certain vehicles, the outer bearings for the front axles may not be of the type that matches the inner bearings. If foreign materials enter the bearings during maintenance work etc. and the vehicle continues to be driven with them, the bearings may be damaged, and in the worst case, the brake could overheat and cause fire hazard.

RJ-1184-0

The way the speed sensor is secured on the transmission is not appropriate, and therefore, the resistor lead wire inside the sensor may disconnect due to vibration during driving etc. If this occurs, the speed sensor may fail to send the signals for the speedometer, the tachograph and/or the automatic transmission to function properly.

RJ-1203-0

The axle shafts do not have sufficient strength, and therefore, they may crack after a long period of use. If the cracks are left unattended, the axle shafts may break, causing the vehicle to stall.

RJ-1299-0

For the front hubs, there is not sufficient margin to allow for unforeseen circumstances, such as excessive torque of the wheel nuts and excessive load etc., and therefore, excessive stress may occur on the edges of the hub flanges, which might lead to small cracks. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks may progress, and in the worst case, the hubs might break.

RJ-0810-0

On certain low floor ('one step floor') model vehicles with air suspension, the brackets for the lower torque rods may not be properly welded, and therefore, they may crack. If this problem is left unattended, the brackets may break, which could cause the vehicle to stall.

RJ-0809-0

For the vehicles with air springs for the front wheels, the lateral members do not have sufficient strength, and therefore, the lateral members may break. If this occurs, at worst, the vehicle may sway from side to side more, and consequently, the air springs may interfere with the steering arms and break, which would adversely affect the stability of the vehicle.

RJ-0456-0

Water can get into the inside of the switch that turns on/off the current to the starter motor and may cause rust on the contact point, and this may lead to malfunction of the switch. If the vehicle continues to be driven with the switch in such a condition, the contact point could overheat and fail to cut the current to the starter motor, and in the worst case, the engine starter would burn out.
