What the ministry says is wrong

大型トラックにおいて、フロントパネル内外に付着・堆積した雪がヒーターホース等の熱によって溶け出し、下方にある衝突被害軽減ブレーキの効き具合を調整する弁(前軸用)に滴下すると、当該調整弁の排気口が凍結により閉塞して前軸の制動力が解除不良になる場合がある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると発進不能となり、又は、前輪のブレーキが引きずった状態で走行がなされ、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、前軸の衝突被害軽減ブレーキ用バルブ(調整弁)の排気口に、凍結防止用カバーを装着する。

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(制御装置)

146 notices in this register name その他(制御装置). 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 311 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2012.
