What the ministry says is wrong

自動変速機付車のストップランプスイッチにおいて、当該スイッチの製造方法が不適切な ため、ペダルブラケットに塗布されたグリース及びリターンスプリングに塗布してある防 錆油が、当該スイッチ内部に侵入して炭化することにより、電気抵抗が大きくなるものが あり、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、最悪の場合、発熱によりシャフトが変形してス イッチが作動しなくなり、シフトロック機能が解除できなくなるとともに制動灯が点灯し なくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、ペダルブラケットに塗布されたグリースを拭き取るとともに当該スイッチを対策 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.

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

スズキ elsewhere in this register

スズキ is named on 357 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(電気装置)

202 notices in this register name その他(電気装置). 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 Suzuki: 359 in the register, and 215 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2001.
