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

助手席に昇降シートを搭載した車両において、昇降シートの折畳式フットレストのヒンジ端部が露出しているため、フットレストを使用せずにシートの下降操作をした場合、当該ヒンジ端部に足等が接触し、最悪の場合、足等を負傷するおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、フットレストのヒンジ部に保護カバーを装着するとともに、フットレストの使用方法について警告ラベルを貼付する。なお、保護カバーの準備に時間を要することから当面の措置として、使用者に対しダイレクトメールにて不具合内容と使用上の注意喚起を行ない、部品の準備ができ次第、保護カバーを装着するとともに、警告ラベルを貼付する。

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

スズキ elsewhere in this register

スズキ is named on 357 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(乗車装置)

71 notices in this register name その他(乗車装置). 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 Suzuki: 359 in the register, and 372 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2010.
