What the ministry says is wrong

プロペラシャフトにおいて、鋼管の製造管理が不適切なため、鋼管の合わせ面の溶接強度が不足していることがある。そのため、走行時の駆動トルクによってプロペラシャフトのジョイントと鋼管の接続部に亀裂が入り、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、亀裂が進行し、最悪の場合、接続部が破断し、走行不能となるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、プロペラシャフトの製造日を確認し、該当するものは良品に交換する。

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.

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

BMW elsewhere in this register

BMW is named on 1 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here.

The same part: プロペラシャフト

101 notices in this register name プロペラシャフト. 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 BMW: 409 in the register, and 419 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2016.
