On certain ATV's, the rear suspension cushion lever mounting bracket can break under certain high-stress conditions. If the mounting bracket falls apart, the rider could lose control of the ATV, possibly resulting in injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the frame and, if cracked, will apply a bead of weld to reinforce the bracket. If cracked beyond a specified limit, the frame will be replaced.

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.
