Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at MLIT, or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on.

What the ministry says is wrong

ショベル・ローダの操縦装置において、方向指示器の自動復帰機構の構造が不適切なため、特定のハンドル位置で自動復帰機構を操作すると、機構内部のピンとレバーが干渉することがある。そのため、方向指示器、又はハンドルの動作を妨げ、正常な運転操作ができなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

方向指示器の自動復帰機構を取り外す。

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

日立 elsewhere in this register

日立 is named on 95 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 方向指示器

123 notices in this register name 方向指示器. 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 Hitachi: 96 in the register, and 201 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2026.

A small badge that links here and names the register's reference. It costs one line of HTML and needs no key.

The badge is free to use. It links to this page and nowhere else, and it never shows advertising.

Owners of these cars

No register publishes what happens after the letter. Owners do: tell us, in two taps.
