Transport Canada carries this recall as 1982098, dated 10 December 1982. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 24V081, dated 7 February 2024. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 3A02.

The two registers are 15,034 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 24V081, 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.

On certain Blazer, Jimmy and C10 vehicles, the rear brake drums may exhibit an interference condition between the rear brake drum balance weights and aluminum wheels. This condition could cause loss of wheel lug nut torque and wheel stud failure could occur which would allow the tire and wheel assembly to separate from the vehicle when the vehicle is in motion. This could result in loss of control and possible vehicle crash.
