What the ministry says is wrong
エアコンの温風と冷風の混合量調整板を作動させるモーターとその調整板との嵌合部において、調整板側の材質が不適切なため強度が不足しているものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該嵌合部が損傷し、モーターが空転して、エアコンの温度調節が出来なくなり、最悪の場合、デフロスタの性能が低下し、保安基準に適合しないおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該嵌合部を点検し、損傷している場合は、エアコンユニットを対策品と交換する。 損傷していない場合は、調整板側に補強具を取り付け、補強具の形状に合わせたモーターに交換する。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.

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 Renault: 109 in the register, and 311 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2012.
