Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

駐車ブレーキ・ケーブルにおいて、ガイドローラの取付構造が不適切なため、駐車ブレーキの操作時に、当該ケーブルとガイドローラの摺動抵抗が高くなることがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、ケーブルが摩耗し、最悪の場合、切損して、駐車ブレーキが作用しなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、駐車ブレーキ・ケーブルと取付金具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.

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.
