What the ministry says is wrong

①排気管(エキゾーストマニホールド)のカバーにおいて、当該カバーの形状が不適切なため、走行中に飛来した植物等が排気管周辺に堆積することがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、走行により排気管周辺が高温となることで、堆積した植物等の火種となり、最悪の場合、車両火災に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

①排気管カバー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.

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

カワサキ elsewhere in this register

カワサキ is named on 90 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: 排気管

126 notices in this register name 排気管. 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 Kawasaki: 90 in the register, and 421 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2020.
