What the ministry says is wrong

前輪緩衝装置において、ステアリングナックルとロアアームを連結しているボールジョイ ントの取り付けナットに締め付け不足のものがあるため、そのままの状態で使用を続ける と、当該ナットがゆるみ、最悪の場合、ステアリングナックルがロアアームからはずれて 、正常な走行ができなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該ボールジョイントの取り付けナットの締め付け状態を点検し、規定トルクで 締め付けられていないものは、ステアリングナックルを新品と交換する。

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

リンカーン elsewhere in this register

リンカーン is named on 4 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 緩衝アーム/ロッド

176 notices in this register name 緩衝アーム/ロッド. 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: 215 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2001.
