What the ministry says is wrong

燃料装置において、燃料ホース保護用プロテクタの耐摩耗性が不十分なため、そのままの 状態で使用を続けると、走行中の振動等により、当該プロテクターの一部が燃料ポンプ取 付部と接触を繰り返すことから摩滅し、燃料ホースが燃料ポンプ取付部と接触することに より損傷し、最悪の場合、燃料が漏れるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該燃料ホースを対策品と交換し、燃料ホース固定用クランプを追加する。 また、燃料ホース保護用プロテクタを廃止し、燃料フィルタ用プロテクタの形状を変更す 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.

Source: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website (出典:国土交通省ウェブサイト), used under the Public Data License 1.0. 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. CarsMultiverse is not the ministry and not a safety authority. To act on this notice, use the ministry's own document.

The Japanese register on this site

カワサキ elsewhere in this register

カワサキ is named on 90 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: その他(燃料装置)

97 notices in this register name その他(燃料装置). A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a Kawasaki: 90 in the register, and 139 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 1999.
