What the ministry says is wrong

油圧式パワーステアリングの供給側ゴム製配管の耐熱性が不足しているため、排気管の触媒コンバータの熱でゴム製配管が劣化して柔軟性が低下するものがある。そのため、ハンドル転蛇時の油圧変動で配管に亀裂が生じてパワーステアリングオイルが漏れ、最悪の場合、排気管に付着し火災に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、パワーステアリングの供給側配管一式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.
