  "excerpt": "フォルクスワーゲン Dba-16Cbz, Dba-16Cbzk. Published by MLIT as 1227270 on 24 October 2018. Part: 始動装置. What the notice says エンジンの始動装置において、エンジンとボディ間に装着されているアースケーブルの長さが不適切なため、走行中の車体振動などによりアースケーブルが破断するものがある。そのため、エンジンの始動装置のアース回路が遮断され、エンジンが始動できなくなる。 Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at MLIT , or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on. 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.
