三菱 Kk-Mm35Hj, Kc-Mm719J, Kc-Mp317K, Kc-Mp337K, Kc-Mp337M, Kc-Mp717K. Published by MLIT as 1114750 on 6 July 2005. Part: 燃料タンク.

What the notice says 燃料タンクを横置き式から縦置き式に変更した車両において、燃料タンクを車体に固定する金具(タンクサポート,タンクサポートブラケット)の取付ボルトの強度が不足しているため、走行時の振動等により当該ボルトが折損するものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該金具が外れ、最悪の場合、燃料タンクが脱落するおそれがある。 (備考)本届出は、平成12年8月22日付け「届出番号662」のリコール届出がされたものについて、一部の車両の改善措置内容が不十分であったため、改善措置内容を見直し、再度対策を行うものである。

Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at MLIT, or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on.

What the ministry says is wrong

燃料タンクを横置き式から縦置き式に変更した車両において、燃料タンクを車体に固定する金具(タンクサポート,タンクサポートブラケット)の取付ボルトの強度が不足しているため、走行時の振動等により当該ボルトが折損するものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該金具が外れ、最悪の場合、燃料タンクが脱落するおそれがある。 (備考)本届出は、平成12年8月22日付け「届出番号662」のリコール届出がされたものについて、一部の車両の改善措置内容が不十分であったため、改善措置内容を見直し、再度対策を行うものである。

What is to be done about it

全車両、タンクサポート、タンクサポートブラケット及び取付ボルト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

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: 燃料タンク

200 notices in this register name 燃料タンク. 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 427 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2005.
