What the ministry says is wrong
電動パワーステアリングにおいて、コントロールモジュール（制御装置）の回路基板の一部構成部品の製造が不適切なため、回路に不具合を生じる。この場合、警告灯（パワーアシスト低下）が点灯するとともに、パワーステアリングのパワーアシストが急に失われ、ハンドルが重くなる。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該パワーステアリングを良品と交換する。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.

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.
