What the ministry says is wrong

制動装置において、ABSコントロールユニット内部の材質が不適切なため、接点が短絡 してABS用油圧ポンプが常時作動したままとなることがあり、当該コントロールユニッ トの内部が過熱し、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、当該ABSコントロールユニットの部品識別番号及びメーカーコードを点検し、 該当するものは対策品と交換する。

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.

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.
