Certain trailers have an upper ABS moulded gas bottle cover lid which could detach due to wind turbulence or vibration and fall onto the road while in transit. This creates a potential road hazard and/or obstruction. Correction: A positive locking device will be added to secure the ABS moulded gas bottle cover lid to the lower plastic pan.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 1998212.
