What the ministry says is wrong

 原動機の始動装置において、イグニッションスイッチの接点部に流れる電流値が大きい ため、主電源を入れる瞬間に大きなアーク放電が生じ、始動操作の繰り返しにより接点が 過度に摩耗して接触圧力が低下するため、走行時の振動等で接点が動き、炭化物に乗り上 げ導通不良となることがあり、最悪の場合、突然原動機が停止するおそれがある。  なお、始動操作で、接点が摺動し炭化物を除去するため、再始動は可能である

What is to be done about it

 全車両、イグニッションスイッチを対策品と交換する。 (対策品の供給に時間を要することから、当面の暫定措置として、全ての使用者に不具合 内容を通知し、順次、当該イグニッションスイッチを対策品と交換する。)

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.

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

ホンダカナダ elsewhere in this register

ホンダカナダ is named on 19 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 始動装置

105 notices in this register name 始動装置. 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 Honda Canada: 19 in the register, and 220 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2002.
