Certain tires may not have adequate rubber coverage of the belt edge due to low tread gauge in the shoulder slot area of the tire. This condition may eventually cause cracking at the base of the shoulder slots resulting in exposed belt wire, which could accelerate belt degradation. Continued use could cause the ply cords to break and the tubeless liner to tear and lose inflating air. Loss of air pressure may compromise steering control, causing a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will replace affected tires.
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 2006042.

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: 377 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2006.
