Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with a Suburban three burner gas range, the oven thermostat control valve may have been manufactured with incorrect internal tolerances. This can allow gas flow to the oven burner when the oven control knob is pushed in while not fully in the correct position to light the pilot. Although the gas flow is significantly reduced from the full burner rate, if the oven control knob is depressed for some time before attempting to ignite the pilot light, the excess gas in the oven could cause a fire. Correction: Dealers will replace the oven thermostat control valve.
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 2007198.

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 notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Forest River Wildwood, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Forest River: 239 in the register, and 420 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2007.
