What the ministry says is wrong
緩衝装置において、後輪サスペンションのアッパーアーム及びロアアームとトレーリング アームとの連結部のボールジョイントの材質が不適切なため、当該ジョイント部に錆が発 生し、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該ジョイントが固着し、アッパーアーム又は ロアアームに亀裂が生じて異音が発生することがあり、最悪の場合、アームが破損して正 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を対策品と交換するとともに、アッパーアーム及びロアア ームを新品と交換する。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.

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 an Audi: 160 in the register, and 220 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2002.
