What the ministry says is wrong

消防車両に装備されているエンジンブロックヒータ(冷寒時始動性向上装置)において、端子部の絶縁用キャップの耐熱性が不足しているため、長期間にわたり長時間通電を繰り返すと当該キャップが劣化し、絶縁性能が低下することがある。そのため、使用過程において、融雪剤等が端子部に浸入すると、腐食により接触抵抗が増加して、端子部が発熱し、断線または焼損することがあり、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、当該ヒータおよび電源コード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

トヨタ elsewhere in this register

トヨタ is named on 593 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: その他(エンジン)

168 notices in this register name その他(エンジン). 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 Toyota: 594 in the register, and 335 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2008.
