Register
Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

燃料タンク上部の樹脂製空気調整弁(ベンチレーション・バルブ)の材質が不適切なため、繰り返しの燃料過給油により当該調整弁が燃料に浸ると、早期に劣化することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、当該調整弁に亀裂が発生し、最悪の場合、燃料が漏れるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該調整弁を点検し、折損していない場合は、当該調整弁に補強用パイプを追加装着する。また折損している場合は、燃料タンク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

メルセデス・ベンツ elsewhere in this register

メルセデス・ベンツ is named on 444 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: その他(燃料装置)

97 notices in this register name その他(燃料装置). 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 Mercedes-Benz: 450 in the register, and 371 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2007.

The badge is free to use. It links to this page and nowhere else, and it never shows advertising.

Owners of these cars

No register publishes what happens after the letter. Owners do: tell us, in two taps.

Anonymous: no account, no cookie, nothing you type is stored beyond these choices. Figures appear once 3 owners have answered, and are published with the record under CC BY 4.0.
