On certain ATV's, the wiring harness may contain ground wires which have broken copper strands in the area where a connector joins the main wiring harness ground wires with ground wire leads for the rear combination lamp and the Capacitor Discharge Ignition unit. If the ground wire for the CDI unit becomes disconnected while riding, the engine will stop running, and the rider may be stranded away from his or her base of operations. If the ground wire for the rear combination lamp becomes disconnected, the rear lamp and rear stop lamp will not illuminate. Correction: Dealers will inspect and repair these ground wires as needed.
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 2002188.

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 Suzuki: 132 in the register, and 246 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2002.
