Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

エンジンの搬送工程における作業が不適切なため、作業中にオイルフィラーキャップを緩めてしまったものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、高負荷運転時に当該キャップ部からオイルが飛散し、最悪の場合、火災に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、オイルフィラーキャップの締め付け状態を点検し、緩んでいる場合は確実に締め付ける。また、オイルが漏れている場合は、洗浄及び部品交換の処置をする。

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.
