Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

ショベルローダの油圧ホースにおいて、ホースを接続する接続金具の材質が不適切なため、強度が不足しているものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該金具に亀裂が生じて作動油が漏れ、最悪の場合、油圧ポンプが空気を吸い込んで破損し、走行不能になるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、油圧ホースを良品と交換する。

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.
