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

What the ministry says is wrong

エンジンの燃料装置において、燃料パイプのパイプ材溶接部に対する曲げ位置が不適切なため、溶接部の応力が高くなり燃料中の微量な腐食成分が作用して微小な亀裂が発生することがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、燃料の圧力変動によりパイプの亀裂が進行し、最悪の場合、燃料が漏れるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該パイプを対策品と交換する。

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.
