What the ministry says is wrong

農業用薬剤散布車の原動機上部の防水構造が不適切なため、洗車時の水等がプラグホールに浸入することがある。そのため、スパークプラグが洗車時の水等により急冷され、最悪の場合、当該プラグの絶縁体が割れてスパークミスが生じ、エンジン回転が不安定となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、防水カバーを取り付ける。また、スパークプラグを点検し、損傷がある場合はスパークプラグを新品に交換する。

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.

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

昭信 elsewhere in this register

昭信 is named on 11 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 点火/予熱プラグ

4 notices in this register name 点火/予熱プラグ. 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 Shoshin: 11 in the register, and 462 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2019.
