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

What the ministry says is wrong

前照灯において、灯火器本体を接着固定している樹脂部材の材質が不適切なため、灯火器本体の樹脂部材からの脱落や光軸調整部の破損が発生する場合がある。そのため、夜間走行時、交通上の障害物を確認できなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、前照灯の製造ロット番号を確認し、不適切な樹脂部材を使用しているものは適切な材質のものに交換する。また、全車両、灯火器本体と樹脂部材に固定用クリップを追加する。

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.
