What the ministry says is wrong

ホイール・クレーンのシャシフレームにおいて、シャシフレームとクロスメンバーの溶接が不適切なため、溶接の溶込み不良で溶接強度が不足している。そのため、走行等により溶接箇所に亀裂が生じ、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、溶接部が破断するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、全溶接箇所のはつり作業を行い、再度、適切に溶接する。

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

カトウ elsewhere in this register

カトウ is named on 61 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 車枠

102 notices in this register name 車枠. 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 Kato: 61 in the register, and 419 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2016.
