What the ministry says is wrong

 4輪駆動車の動力伝達装置において、後軸差動装置のオイルシール組付け治具が不適切 なため、当該治具によるオイルシール圧入時、オイルシールが損傷し、そのままの状態で 使用を続けると、高速走行中にオイルが漏れ、最悪の場合、後軸差動装置が損傷し走行不 能になるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

 全車両、後軸差動装置のオイル残量を確認し、オイル残量が必要量以上の場合は当該オ イルシールを良品と交換する。また、オイル残量が必要量未満の場合は後軸差動装置を良 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

三菱 elsewhere in this register

三菱 is named on 887 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: デファレンシャル

47 notices in this register name デファレンシャル. 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 Mitsubishi: 1,288 in the register, and 220 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2002.
