The Canadian register on this site

Towmaster elsewhere in this register

Towmaster is named on 2 notices in the copy of Transport Canada’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same system: Label

529 notices in this register name Label. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

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.
