Yes, there are situations in which 主要 (zhǔyào) should not be used. For example, when referring to a person's age, 主要 (zhǔyào) should not be used. Instead, the word 年龄 (niánlíng) should be used. 主要 (zhǔyào) is used to refer to something that is the most important or the most prominent, while 年龄 (niánlíng) is used to refer to a person's age.

主要 (zhǔyào) is often used to emphasize the importance of something. For example, someone might say 他的主要工作是做研究 (tā de zhǔyào gōngzuò shì zuò yánjiū) meaning "His main job is research". It can also be used to describe the most important part of something, such as 主要原因是他缺乏耐心 (zhǔyào yuányīn shì tā quēfá nàixīn) meaning "The main reason is his lack of patience".
