Defect	Anti-rust oil unsuitable for clutch disc use was applied, and during operation, it mixes with metal powder generated from clutch friction plate wear, and can become highly viscous at high engine temperatures. In such cases, the problematic viscous substance may not be discharged or removed from the clutch disc surface, which can prevent the clutch from fully disengaging even when the clutch lever is fully pulled, leading to the possibility of the vehicle moving forward even when stationary, hence this recall.
Component	Power transmission system, other
Remedy	Replace clutch disc set (using appropriate anti-rust oil)
