Is your vehicle included? Check with your VIN at MLIT, or ask a dealer. This page is an independent copy of the notice, kept so you can see what changed after it was published. It is not the authority, and the authority’s own text is the one to act on.

What the ministry says is wrong

フロントサスペンションにおいて、アッパーコントロールアームとナックルを組付けているボルトの締付作業が不適切なため、ボルトに傷がついているものがある。このため、ボルトが折損し、前輪を適切に保持できず、最悪の場合、車両の走行安定性を損なって事故に至るおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、フロントサスペンション（左右）の当該ボルトを新品に交換する。

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

ジープ elsewhere in this register

ジープ is named on 61 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(緩衝装置)

76 notices in this register name その他(緩衝装置). 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 Jeep: 61 in the register, and 371 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2024.
