What the ministry says is wrong

ナックルアームのボールスタッドの強度が不足しているため、据切りの多用や操舵頻度の 高い走行を繰り返すと、当該ボールスタッドに亀裂が発生するものがある。そのため、そ のままの状態で使用を続けると、最悪の場合、ボールスタッドが折損して操舵不能となる おそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、ナックルアームを対策品と交換する。なお、対策品の全数供給に時間を要するこ とから、当面の暫定措置として、ナックルアームのボールスタッド部の亀裂の有無を点検 し、亀裂のある場合は対策品と交換し、問題のない場合は後日対策品と交換する。

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

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: かじ取リンク機構

149 notices in this register name かじ取リンク機構. 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 511 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2004.

No register publishes what happens after the letter. Owners do: tell us, in two taps.
