The two registers are 2 days apart: the Canadian entry is dated first, the American one second.
These are the dates each register records against its own notice. They are separate administrative acts in two countries, recorded by two authorities under two sets of rules, and this page does not claim that one caused the other or that owners in either country were contacted on those days. What it shows is that the same manufacturer campaign reached the two registers on different dates.
Read the American notice 15V465, including every earlier version of its wording this site holds. The Canadian register explains why the manufacturer code is published there and what that makes possible. Canada and America sets every matched pair side by side.

Certain vehicles equipped with front vented-heated passenger seats may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 208 - Occupant Protection. The Automatic Occupant Sensing (AOS) system may contain a calibration-learning error that will cause the AOS system to fail to suppress the front passenger airbag when an infant seat is placed in the front passenger seat. The front-passenger airbag status light will indicate that the airbag is u201conu201d when the passenger seat is not occupied or is occupied by an infant. Additionally, the front-passenger seatu2019s safety-belt warning light and chime may turn on when the passenger seat is not occupied and the seatbelt is not buckled. If, despite safety warnings and provincial regulations, a child was placed in a child car seat secured in the passenger front position, the active airbag could deploy in a crash causing potential injury. Correction: Dealers will correct the calibration-learning error by preconditioning the empty seat and resetting the seat zero-value in the ECU.
