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

What the ministry says is wrong

大型観光バスにおいて、方向指示器の長時間点滅を繰り返して行うと、後面方向指示器の橙色キャップ上部が溶損する場合がある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該キャップの気化成分でレンズ内面が白濁すると共に、当該キャップ上部に穴が開くおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全使用者に対し当該不具合について周知し、後面方向指示器にレンズ内面の白濁や橙色キャップの溶損が認められた場合は、左右のリヤコンビネーションランプを対策品に交換する。

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.
