What the ministry says is wrong

アッパーコントロールアームとナックルを締結するナットの締付けが不適切なため、ナットが規定トルクで締め付けられていないものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、ナックルがアッパーコントロールアームから外れ、最悪の場合、かじ取り操作ができなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

取付けナットを点検し、緩みがある場合はアッパーコントロールアームと取付けナットを新品に交換する。

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.

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.
