What the ministry says is wrong
動力伝達装置において、リヤドライブシャフトの製造工程が不適切なため、溶接時にジョイント部を冷す冷却液が溶接の熱で蒸気となり、中空シャフトの内側に付着し、シャフト両端部の溶接部内側に錆が発生するものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、発進時の高トルク伝達時にシャフトの溶接部に亀裂が発生し、最悪の場合、シャフトが折損し、走行不能となるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該ドライブシャフト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.
