Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lighting Equipment and Retroreflective Devices. The vehicle headlamp adjustment device (VHAD) horizontal adjuster may not move the headlamp reflector when the shaft is rotated in a normal manner during aiming, and the owner's manual does not contain any instructions for visual/optical aiming of the headlamps. Correction: Dealers will install an insert in the owner's manual insert containing the correct information.

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 Buick: 326 in the register, and 311 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2000.
