What the ministry says is wrong

計器盤の前照灯及び方向指示器の操作スイッチが、ハンドルの中心から500㎜を越えて配置されているため、保安基準に適合していない。

What is to be done about it

全車両、前照灯及び方向指示器の操作スイッチを適合する位置に取付け直す。さらに、作業時以外は左側ステアリングを使用しないことを警告ラベルにより計器盤および取扱説明書に明示する。

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

不明 elsewhere in this register

不明 is named on 19 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 装置その他

210 notices in this register name 装置その他. 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: 311 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2012.
