What the ministry says is wrong

 ショベル・ローダのフロントアクスルにおいて、アクスルシャフトの鋼材製造工程の水素含有量の管理が不十分なため、アクスルシャフト内部で亀裂が生じ、最悪の場合、アクスルシャフトが折損し、前輪タイヤが脱落するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

 原因究明に時間を要するため、全車両、暫定措置として、フロントアクスルのロットナンバーを確認し、対象のものは、アクスルシャフトを新品に交換する。なお、恒久対策が決定次第、速やかに恒久対策を実施する。

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

コマツ elsewhere in this register

コマツ is named on 216 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: アクスル

91 notices in this register name アクスル. 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 Komatsu: 297 in the register, and 421 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2020.
