メルセデス・ベンツ 3Da-177012, -177084-, 3Da-177012M, 3Da-177112, 3Da-177112M, 3Da-247012. Published by MLIT as 1238010 on 16 May 2024. Part: その他(エンジン).

What the notice says ４気筒ディーゼルエンジンのチャージエアディストリビュータにおいて、吸気経路を制御するクランクアーム機構への潤滑剤塗布が不適切なため、潤滑不良によるガイドの摩耗で接続が外れ、吸気経路が制御できなくなることがある。そのため、システムがこれを検知してエンジン警告灯（ｍｉｌ）が点灯し、出力が制限され、最悪の場合、排出ガスが悪化し、排出量が基準値を満足しなくなるおそれがある。

What the ministry says is wrong

４気筒ディーゼルエンジンのチャージエアディストリビュータにおいて、吸気経路を制御するクランクアーム機構への潤滑剤塗布が不適切なため、潤滑不良によるガイドの摩耗で接続が外れ、吸気経路が制御できなくなることがある。そのため、システムがこれを検知してエンジン警告灯（ＭＩＬ）が点灯し、出力が制限され、最悪の場合、排出ガスが悪化し、排出量が基準値を満足しなくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、接続が外れないようにクランクアーム機構にブラケットを装着する。

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

メルセデス・ベンツ elsewhere in this register

メルセデス・ベンツ is named on 444 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: その他(エンジン)

168 notices in this register name その他(エンジン). 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 Mercedes-Benz: 450 in the register, and 371 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2024.

No register publishes what happens after the letter. Owners do: tell us, in two taps.
