三菱 Le-U61V(改), Le-U62V(改), Ta-U61W(改), Ta-U62W(改), Le-U71V(改), Le-U72V(改). Published by MLIT as 1125340 on 20 May 2010. Part: その他(乗車装置).

What the notice says 車椅子用油圧式リフトを架装した福祉車両において、車両床面位置検知用スイッチの防塵性が不十分なため、砂塵等の異物がスイッチ周辺部へ付着することがある。また、油圧シリンダから微量に染み出したオイルをリザーバータンクに戻すリターンホースが、リフト使用時の屈曲の繰り返しにより損傷し、当該スイッチ部にオイルが垂れるおそれがあり、垂れたオイルが助長要因となり当該スイッチ周辺部に砂塵等の異物が噛込み、作動不良となる場合がある。そのため、リフトが床面まで上昇すると自動停止する機能が機能せず、収納動作に移行し、リフトが傾き、車室内へ車椅子が転倒するおそれがある。

What the ministry says is wrong

車椅子用油圧式リフトを架装した福祉車両において、車両床面位置検知用スイッチの防塵性が不十分なため、砂塵等の異物がスイッチ周辺部へ付着することがある。また、油圧シリンダから微量に染み出したオイルをリザーバータンクに戻すリターンホースが、リフト使用時の屈曲の繰り返しにより損傷し、当該スイッチ部にオイルが垂れるおそれがあり、垂れたオイルが助長要因となり当該スイッチ周辺部に砂塵等の異物が噛込み、作動不良となる場合がある。そのため、リフトが床面まで上昇すると自動停止する機能が機能せず、収納動作に移行し、リフトが傾き、車室内へ車椅子が転倒するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、床面位置検知用スイッチを対策品と交換し、スイッチ設置部へ防塵用カバーを装着する。また、リターンホースの取付け位置を変更し、リターンホースを材質変更した対策品と交換する。

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

三菱 elsewhere in this register

三菱 is named on 887 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(乗車装置)

71 notices in this register name その他(乗車装置). 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 Mitsubishi: 1,288 in the register, and 372 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2010.
