Certain ATVs may have been assembled with an improperly manufactured plastic fuel tank. The plastic material in a certain area of the tank is too thin due to a problem with the moulding process. If an improperly manufactured tank was hit in the area of the thin material during vehicle assembly, the fuel tank may have been punctured. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the fuel tank.
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 2006047.

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 Suzuki: 132 in the register, and 377 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2006.
