Bmw S1000Rr. Published by MLIT as 1218430 on 2 May 2012. Part: エンジン本体.

What the notice says 原動機内部のコネクティングロッドにおいて、コネクティングロッドボルトのコーティングが不適切なため、高温の状態で摩擦係数が減少し、コネクティングロッドボルトが緩むことがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、エンジンが破損して走行不能に至るおそれがある。

Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at MLIT, or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on.

Bmw S1000RR in the other registers

This site holds seven national and European registers. Bmw S1000RR is named on 2 American notices, 11 Canadian, 6 British, 2 European and 2 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.

Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

What the ministry says is wrong

原動機内部のコネクティングロッドにおいて、コネクティングロッドボルトのコーティングが不適切なため、高温の状態で摩擦係数が減少し、コネクティングロッドボルトが緩むことがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、エンジンが破損して走行不能に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、良品のコネクティングロッドボルトへ交換する。その際、緩み防止剤を塗布する。 なお、改善措置用部品の供給に時間を要することから、当面の暫定的な措置として全ての使用者に対し、正規ディーラーを通じて安全に関する注意事項をお知らせする。

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

BMW elsewhere in this register

BMW is named on 1 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here.

The same part: エンジン本体

278 notices in this register name エンジン本体. 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 BMW: 409 in the register, and 311 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2012.
