Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

1 静油圧変速機の油圧ホースにおいて、その耐圧強度及び取付け角度が不適切なため、冬季使用時等の低温時に作動油の粘度が上がり高圧となった場合に、油圧ホースに亀裂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、ホースが破損して作動油が流出し、最悪の場合、走行できなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

1  全車両、油圧ホースを対策品と交換し、取付け角度を変更する。

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.

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.
