What the ministry says is wrong

ショベルローダの低圧燃料パイプにおいて、製造工程が不適切なため、腐食しやすいものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、腐食により発生した異物が燃料噴射装置に噛み込むことで適正な燃料噴射ができなくなり、エンジンの出力低下や始動困難となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該低圧燃料パイプを良品に交換するとともに、インジェクタからの燃料戻り量を点検し、規定以上の戻りが生じた場合はインジェクタ、高圧燃料パイプおよび燃料プレッシャセンサー等を新品に交換する。

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.
