What the ministry says is wrong
燃料装置において、燃料タンクの溶接方法が不適切なため、当該タンク上部に取り付けられたカバープレートが正しく溶接されていないものがある。そのため、走行振動等により溶接部に亀裂が生じ、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、亀裂が進展し、亀裂部位から燃料が漏れるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、燃料タンクを良品に交換する。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.
