On certain trailers, the pivot bolts may not have been torqued to specs at installation. If the fasteners are loose, it could result in premature bushing / hanger wear and loss of axle attachment. This situation may result in a crash causing property damages, personal injuries or death. Correction: Owners will be advised to inspect and torque to specs or have their dealers to do it.

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 Wilson Grain Trailer, 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 Wilson: 12 in the register, and 458 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2008.
