What the ministry says is wrong
原動機の点火装置において、点火コードと点火コイルの嵌合に不適切なものがあるため、 そのままの状態で使用を続けると、振動等により当該嵌合部が緩み、最悪の場合、失火し て未燃焼ガスが触媒に流入し、触媒の温度が異常に上昇して警告灯が点灯するおそれがあ る。What is to be done about it
全車両、点火コード及び点火コイルの嵌合状態を点検し、緩みのあるものは点火コード及 び点火コイルを新品と交換する。 全車両、失火検知モジュールを新たに装着し、マフラーハンガーゴムを耐熱性の高い対策 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.

8 notices in this register name ハイテンションコード. 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 Lotus: 18 in the register, and 215 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2001.
