What the ministry says is wrong
スタータにおいて、防水性の検討が不十分なため、水溜まり等を勢いよく走行するとスタータのリレー内部に水が浸入することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、接点部が短絡しエンジン始動不能や、最悪の場合、火災に至るおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該スタータを対策品と交換する。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.

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 BMW: 409 in the register, and 380 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2025.
