What the ministry says is wrong

動力式かじ取り装置(パワーステアリング)のオイル・ポンプの軽合金製ブラケット( オイル・ポンプ取付金具)とピットマンアーム(連結腕)との間隔が極めて少ないため、 ハンドルを切ったときに接触するものがあり、このままの状態で使用を続けると、当該軽 合金製ブラケットに損傷を与えるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、ピットマンアームと当該軽合金製ブラケット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.
