Register
Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

エンジンの燃料装置において、燃料リターンパイプの固定構造が不適切なため、エンジン振動により当該パイプ固定部の応力が高くなるものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けるとパイプに亀裂が発生し、燃料が漏れるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、燃料リターンパイプの固定構造を変更するとともに、燃料リターンパイプを新品と交換する。

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.

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.
