What the ministry says is wrong
変速機において、ギヤの強度が不足しているため、サーキット走行等でスロットルを急全開にして加速しながら変速操作を行うと、当該ギヤに過大な応力が加わることがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、亀裂が生じて破損し、最悪の場合、走行不能となるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、変速機のギヤ一式を対策品に交換する。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.
