What the ministry says is wrong

前照灯において、タクシー用途等で使用する際、想定を超えて長時間点灯し続けると、バルブからの熱と紫外線により反射板のアルミ蒸着が剥離することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、集光不足となり、光度が徐々に低下し、最悪の場合、保安基準第32条(前照灯の基準)を満足しなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、前照灯の反射板を対策品に、レンズを新品に交換する。

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.

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.
