What the ministry says is wrong
助手席エアバッグのインフレーター（膨張装置）において、ガス発生剤の成型工程が不適切又は成型後の吸湿防止措置が不適切なため、密度が不足したガス発生剤が組み込まれたものがある。そのため、エアバッグ展開時にインフレーター内圧が異常上昇し、インフレーター容器が破損して飛び散り、出火するおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該エアバッグを良品に交換する。なお、これらの良品の準備に時間を要する事から、当面の措置としてまずは使用者に対しダイレクトメールにより連絡を行い、良品の準備が整う７月下旬頃より再度連絡を行う事とする。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 390 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2013.
