On certain fifth wheel trailers, the brake wires may be pinched between the frame and aluminum underbelly. This could cause cuts to the insulation and could result in a short circuit and possibly a brake failure. Correction: Brake wire will be inspected for chafing and if the wire and insulation are sound, sealed with silicone around the wire. Chafed wire will be replaced.

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 Glendale: 18 in the register, and 240 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 1999.
