Register
Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

始動装置において、使用方法に対する評価が不十分なため、エンジン、スタータの内部部品が故障により固着して、スタータモータが回転できない状態で始動操作を繰り返すとスタータの電気回路に過電流が流れ、始動電流リミッタが発熱することがある。そのため、始動電流リミッタの周辺部位が溶損、発煙し、最悪の場合、発火するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、スタータ配線にフューズを追加する。

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.
