What the ministry says is wrong

エンジンコントロールユニットにおいて、ソフトウエアが不適切なため、アクセルペダルの故障を検知した際のセーフモードにおけるエンジン回転数の設定が高すぎる。このため、当セーフモードが起動した際、走行中等意図しない加速により前方車両や歩行者と接触するおそれがある。また、当セーフモードが起動した状態でシフトをDレンジにしたまま車両を離れると、パーキングブレーキでは制動できず車両が自走するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、エンジンコントロールユニットのソフトウエアを対策プログラムに更新する。

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

シトロエン elsewhere in this register

シトロエン is named on 121 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: コンピュータ(エンジ

219 notices in this register name コンピュータ(エンジ. 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 Citroen: 121 in the register, and 398 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2023.
