The American register

Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain vehicles, a plate which is used to support the spare tire was inadvertently left off D30B motor homes built on a Ford chassis. Without this additional support, the spare tire may fall off the vehicle resulting in property damage and possibly personal injury. Correction: Dealer will inspect the spare tire mount and, if necessary, install a new support plate.
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 2003032.

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 notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Itasca Sunova, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Itasca: 102 in the register, and 350 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2003.
