On certain vehicles, the cylinder head idler gear shaft bolt may have been insufficiently tightened during vehicle assembly. Continued operation in this condition could cause the bolt to loosen, resulting in abnormal noise from improper gear alignment. In the worst case, the bolt could break, causing the engine to stall and not restart. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, tighten the idler shaft bolt to specifications.

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 Mitsubishi Fuso: 41 in the register, and 404 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2005.
