Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

外気温が低いときに作動する吸入空気加熱装置において、回路設計が不適切であるため電源供給回路が破損し電流が流れ続けることがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、当該回路が発熱して溶損し、適切に作動しなくなり、最悪の場合、当該回路が過熱し火災が発生するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、リレーを追加装着して電源供給回路の配線を変更する。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered.
