On certain ATV's, the grommets used to seal the fuel tank fittings to the fuel tank assembly, are susceptible to damage either during installation or during subsequent ATV operation, thereby allowing gasoline to leak from the fuel tank assembly. If a fuel tank grommet has been damaged and fuel leaks from the fuel tank, the leaking fuel could ignite and create a fire, possibly resulting in severe injury or death. Correction: Dealer will replace the fuel tank grommets.
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 2003290.

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 Polaris: 197 in the register, and 350 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2003.
