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.

What the ministry says is wrong

電動パワーステアリングギヤボックスにおいて、内部部品の製造が不適切なため、電気信号の通信障害が発生するものがある。そのため、フェールセーフ機能が作動して、パワーアシストが停止することでハンドル操作に支障をきたすおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、通信障害が発生した場合であってもパワーアシストを継続するようパワーステアリング制御モジュールのプログラムを変更する。 また、パワーステリング制御モジュールを点検し、既に通信障害の故障が発生している場合には、電動パワーステアリングギヤボックスを良品に交換する。 なお、電動パワーステアリングギヤボックスの供給に時間を要するため、交換が必要なユーザーに対しては、準備が出来次第、再度連絡する。

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

フォード elsewhere in this register

フォード is named on 125 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: パワーステアリング

156 notices in this register name パワーステアリング. 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 Ford: 125 in the register, and 396 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2014.
