What the ministry says is wrong
二階建ての大型バスにおいて、エアコンユニット用配線のコネクタの防水性が不十分なため、走行中に後輪が巻き上げた冬季の融雪剤を含む塩水等がコネクタに浸入する場合がある。そのため、使用過程において、被水と乾燥を繰り返すと、当該コネクタ内でのショートとコネクタ付近でのアークが発生することで、当該コネクタや配線の焼損が生じ、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、エアコンユニット用配線のコネクタ部分を対策品と交換するとともに、当該ユニットの発電機用回路に保護回路を追加する。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.

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 390 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2013.
