Certain red after-market accessory skis manufactured by PPD Industries for use on Polaris snowmobiles may break during snowmobile operation. This may cause the operator to lose control of the snowmobile and crash, possibly resulting in severe injury or death. The affected skis can be distinguished by their lack of any label or imprint indicating a brand name, their color and their composite construction (i.e. nonmetallic). All of the skis have one of the following part numbers stamped on the rear tail of the ski: 5433175, 5433260, or 5433273. Correction: Dealer will replace affected skis at no charge to the consumer.
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 2004025.

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 449 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2004.
