On certain cargo trailers, the aluminium wheels can crack along the edge, which could cause the wheel to break apart. A sudden loss of air pressure could severely affect vehicle handling, which may result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury or death. Note: Further evaluation revealed this to be the result of overloading by the operator, and not a flaw in design, or manufacturing

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: 458 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2008.
