Register
Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

①燃料装置において、燃料ポンプユニットを燃料タンクに固定する樹脂製ナットの締付け が不適切なため、当該ナットを斜めに締付けたものがあり、そのままの状態で使用を続け ると、燃料満タン時に当該燃料ポンプユニット取付け部から燃料が漏れ、最悪の場合、火 災に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

①全車両、当該樹脂製ナットを緩めて外し、再締付けを行う。

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.
