Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

サンルーフ付き車両において、サンルーフの製造が不適切なため、サンルーフガラスとフレームの接着力が低いものがある。そのため、使用過程で接着力が低下すると、走行中の風圧によってサンルーフガラスが脱落するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、サンルーフガラス取付部に接着剤を追加する。

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.
