What the ministry says is wrong

プラグキャップの材質が不適切なため、低速走行時などプラグキャップ周辺が高温となる場合で、かつ、プラグキャップ周辺に水分が付着すると、シリンダヘッドに電流がリークする場合がある。そのため、スロットルを開いても点火プラグが失火してエンジンの回転が不安定になり、最悪の場合、エンジンが停止して始動不能となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、プラグキャップ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.
