What the ministry says is wrong

助手席の着座検知装置において、エアバッグコントロールユニットの制御プログラムが不適切なため、作動が停止することがある。そのため、人が着座しているにもかかわらず着座を検知しないため、衝突時にエアバッグが展開しないおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、エアバッグコントロールユニットの制御プログラムを対策プログラムに書き換える。

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.
