What the ministry says is wrong
動力伝達装置の前・後進切換レバーにおいて、当該レバー内部の前・後進切換スイッチに 製造不良のものがあり、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該レバーが中立の位置にも かかわらず、後進側の電気回路が通電可能な状態になり、後進警告音を無視して原動機を 始動すると、最悪の場合、車両が後進するおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該前・後進切換スイッチを良品と交換する。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 Komatsu: 297 in the register, and 129 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 1998.
