What the ministry says is wrong

 前輪車軸懸架方式の小型トラックのタイロッドエンドのボールジョイントにおいて、ダ ストブーツのシール構造が不適切なため、当該ジョイントへ泥水等が浸入し、樹脂ベアリ ングが摩耗してガタが発生することがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると ガタが増大し、最悪の場合、ボールジョイントがタイロッドから外れ走行不能になるおそ れがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該タイロッドエンド一式を対策品と交換する。 なお、部品の全数供給に時間を要するため、当面の暫定措置として当該ジョイントを点検 し、ガタまたはブーツの損傷がある場合は対策品に交換し、問題のない場合は後日対策品 に交換する。 また、当該部位の点検整備内容を充実させ周知することにより、定期点検へのユーザの注 意を喚起する。

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.
