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

What the ministry says is wrong

かじ取り装置において、製造工程の管理が不適切なため、操舵力を伝える歯車を固定するナットの締付けが不十分なものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該ナットが緩み、操舵不能となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該ナットの締付け状態を点検し、緩みが認められた場合は良品のベベルギヤに交換する。

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.
