What the ministry says is wrong

ホイール・キャップが装着されている車両において、ホイール・キャップの形状が不適切なため、各部位の寸法公差との組合せにより前輪のホイール・キャップが自動車の車体から突出しているものがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該ホイール・キャップを対策品に交換する。

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.

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.
