What the ministry says is wrong

動力伝達装置において、前後進切替えレバーのリンク機構に使用しているベアリング保持金具の強度が不足しているため、レバー操作を繰り返し行なうと、保持金具取付ボルトに緩みが生じる場合がある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該保持金具に亀裂が生じ、最悪の場合、保持金具が破損し前後進の切替えが出来なくなり、走行不能となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、ベアリング及びベアリング保持金具を対策品に交換する。

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.

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.
