THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE AN INCORRECT WIRING CONNECTION AT THE NUMBER TWO CIRCUIT BREAKER IN THE DRIVER'S CONTROL PANEL. THE MAIN FEED WIRE AND THE HORN RELAY-FLASHER FEED WIRE MAY HAVE BEEN CONNECTED IN REVERSE OF THEIR INTENDED POSITIONS. THIS COULD LEAD TO BREAKER CYCLING AND LOSS OF THE REAR DOOR BRAKE INTERLOCK FEATURE. THIS COULD RESULT IN INJURIES TO PASSENGERS IN THE DOOR IF THE BRAKE INTERLOCK FAILS TO PREVENT THE COACH FROM MOVING WHILE THE REAR DOOR IS OPEN.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, 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 /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a GMC: 561 in the register, and 160 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 1984.
