What the ministry says is wrong

原動機制御用コンピュータのフェールセーフプログラムの一部が不適切なため、電子制御 式加速装置の電気系統が水気等により接続不良を起こした場合、燃料が過剰に供給されて 異常燃焼を起こすことにより触媒コンバータが過熱し、最悪の場合、火災に至るおそれが ある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、原動機制御用コンピュータユニットを対策品と交換する。、また、電子制御式加 速装置を点検し、不良品に該当する場合は良品と交換する。

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

BMWアルピナ elsewhere in this register

BMWアルピナ is named on 62 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 排ガス減少装置

99 notices in this register name 排ガス減少装置. 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 BMW Alpina: 62 in the register, and 228 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2000.
