What the notice says センターコンソールに設置されている後写鏡の角度調節用スイッチの接点部に不適切な潤滑剤を塗布したものがあるため、炎天下に駐車するなど当該部が高温にさらされた場合、潤滑剤成分が硬化し、角度調節の際に接点部が破損することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、破損部位でアークが発生し、発熱することがあり、最悪の場合、火災に至るおそれがある。

What the ministry says is wrong

センターコンソールに設置されている後写鏡の角度調節用スイッチの接点部に不適切な潤滑剤を塗布したものがあるため、炎天下に駐車するなど当該部が高温にさらされた場合、潤滑剤成分が硬化し、角度調節の際に接点部が破損することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、破損部位でアークが発生し、発熱することがあり、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、ドアミラースイッチを良品と交換する。

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

アルファロメオ elsewhere in this register

アルファロメオ is named on 39 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 後写鏡

61 notices in this register name 後写鏡. 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 an Alfa Romeo: 39 in the register, and 361 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2006.
