It's definitely not a japanese word that resembles an A.

It's just a marking as verification that it has been checked. Just like the markings on the bolts.

Likely a QA marking. Markings on a bolt are actually a torque stripe to indicate a tech has properly torqued it.

Damn! I thought the "A" meant you bought an intelligent car.

You can actually see different people's hand writing! All the "A" markings don't look identical so they're all definitely inspected personally and done by hand. How cool is that
