What the ministry says is wrong

エアバッグコントロールユニットにおいて、製造時の洗浄が不適切なため、ユニット内部に異物が残っていることがある。そのため、走行時の加速、減速によって異物が当該ユニットの電子基板の素子に接触し、素子間で電流が通電すると、エアバッグの警告灯が点灯して一時的にエアバッグの作動が停止し、最悪の場合、衝突時にエアバッグが展開しないおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、エアバックコントロールユニットを良品と交換する。

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.
