What the ministry says is wrong

クラッチ・ペダルを踏まずに原動機の始動ができる機構の手動変速機付車において、始動 装置内部の構成部品に加工不良のものがあるため、原動機始動後のキーの戻りが悪くなる ものがあり、そのままの状態で使用を続けるとヒューズが切れ、最悪の場合、原動機が停 止し、再始動できなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該装置のキー挿入部に潤滑剤を塗布すると共に、イグニッション・スイッチ部 を良品と交換する。

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.
